I believe in all over body conditioning, the more muscle the better. I work from the Weider system and take protein supplements + creatine. I know that the heavier you are the more momentum you carry = faster overall race time. This never seems to be covered on the forum! I am 2-3 stone heavier than I was, and faster, due to simple physics.
Momentum= Mass x Velocity
