That's just me, though. I have nothing but respect for serious weight lifters. Being in shape is the exception, not the rule. I prefer having low body fat and lean muscles, but I understand that some people want to be bulky with muscles.
Think I'm going to go for a run now.

Deadlifting heavy for reps with definitely add to your endurance. Most of the guys that are bulky with muscles have a goal of being really big and lean. Its pretty hard to get big without adding some bodyfat... most who try to get big and stay super lean just end up spinning their wheels. Unless your on peds. But like you said, it's all about what your goal is and taking the most efficient path to get there.
