It seems like a false distinction to me? Sure, you can complete a marathon in 20 weeks of training, but you can also squat a barbell on your first try at the gym. As someone who has done both, you can dedicate years to the pursuit of either practice. Either way, you will likely be better off. But I will agree that more research on the health benefits of casual strength training is always welcome.
