What kind of weight training did Shaolin monks do?

It’s been proven that Shaolin monks did, in fact, lift weights when they trained in addition to their body weight training (calisthenics, plyometrics, etc.). My question is since they did lift weights, what did they do? Did they do the high rep light weight? Low rep heavy weight? Or did they just lift whatever they could as many times as they could? What was the weight training technique that they used that didn’t inhibit their speed and fluidity of their movements? I’m talking about monks who know combat, not peformers.

They often use Stone Padlocks. which are rocks or concrete shaped into a “block with a handle” kinda looks like a square dumbell.

They also chip stones into balls, kinda like a medicine ball.
