I have a workout "ethos" and I'm sure it's been done before, but this is it:
I lift weights almost every day, but lighter weights, and only one set with a higher rep count.
I do so with slow and methodical form to maximize the lifts, but I also do this workout at high pace.
I take no breaks, or, as breaks I do things like squats or steps or side steps. Always moving.
Such that's its like a cardio workout, or close to it, but with weights. And while I fully realize the weights aren't heavy and massive, I am lifting almost every day. With good form.

So, has this idea already been done by someone else? I'd love to know about it if so..

why dont you lift heavy weights....?

I want to be strong and fast rather than some big muscle guy.

Get into olympic weightlifting, high rep ranges are usually for hypertrophy (muscle mass building) and make you bigger

Isn't this the opposite of what I was talking about?

Weight lifting is so weird.
