Oh reeeeeeeaaaaaally?
I assume you can also do this with Lydia, or anyone of the sort.

My first (and favorite) character is a Redguard who focused on Light Armor, Alchemy, and Two-Handed swords. It got to the point where I could one-shot dragons with a single swing. Armor isn't as strong as Heavy, but looking at the perks, Light Armor is the only good Armor.
