Training is pretty specific, ala if you train your legs by running bleachers, you probably won't increase your barbell squat much (and the reverse is also true).
If you want high strength, you need to constantly overload and progress your muscles with the weight they push. If you want high endurance, you gotta push them longer and harder each time.
An example. There was me and my friend. Both of us were fit, but in different ways, I trained for strength, he did for endurance.
When we started working out together, it was like this:
I was benching somewhere near 200, he was doing about 135
I was doing about 15 pushups before I had to stop, he could do over 100.
You gotta train for what you want to do. Marathon runners will never be squatting 600, and squatters who push 600 won't be doing marathons.
