Well, I am not sure I fully understand Your idea quite right.
But the fact is that the resistance and the mass follows each other and will always do.
If You double the resistance You will half the weight and the other way around.
And if You don't alter the resistance You will neither alter the mass.
The one who succeeded was the one who didn't know it was impossible.
