Looking at whether the long-held belief regarding training with heavier weapons is correct. Does training with heavier weapons actually make you a better swordsperson? Vegetius talks about training with heavy weapons in the late-4th century, and a few other historical sources since then mention it was well (some of them repeating Vegetius!), but other sources recommend training with lighter weapons. Other sources recommend training with weapons than weight the same as the actual combat weapons. Modern science comes at the question from a different angle.
