You don't need to lift heavy weights to gain muscle.
As long as volume and effort are high, and you train to fatigue, you can build muscle mass (hypertrophy) with lower weights.
Dr. Stuart Phillips (@mackinprof) and colleagues recently showed that low-load (20–25 reps at ~30–40% 1RM) and high-load (8–12 reps at ~70–80% 1RM) resistance exercise led to similar gains in muscle hypertrophy and stimulation of myofibrillar protein synthesis in the upper and lower body over 10 weeks of training.
Effort drives adaptations.

Never have I received more respect for being an academic, let alone a historian, than from the döner seller in Berlin today. He did insist on choosing the meat and toppings for me – "you are a doctor of academics, but I am a doctor of döner" – but I felt as if it were 1880 again.
