I'm sorry trip, but you're wrong. Lifting heavy weight for lower reps is IDEAL for cutting or bulking. Mainly because...
1. It burns just as many calories as doing lower weight for more reps. Your body exerts just as much energy to lift heavy weighs as it does lighter weight for more reps.
2. When cutting is absolutely essential to lift with heavy weights in order to maintain your muscle mass, or as much of it as you can while eating in a caloric deficit.
3. Losing body fat is 90% diet and 10% training. You can do all the cardio in the world but if you're not in a caloric deficit you aren't going to lose weight.
By the way, I am nsca and acsm certified so all this isn't coming out my ass. It's understandable some of the claims you're making because they are very common myths.
