    good strength with small size.. READ THIS PLZ

    ok im only 14 yrs old 6 feet tall and i weigh about 165(pretty skinny and low body fat). last summer i maxed out on bench press at 200 pounds. when i first started liftin i could only max out on 95 pounds weighing 140. so 2 me this was a good strength increase. well until i found out reading my dads old scrap book. when he was about 16 or 17 yrs old he was 5'11 weighd about 155 pounds(REALLY skinny but ripped) and could bench press 260 pounds! and when he was at his peak he weighd 180 pounds and benched 330! I just wanna know how i can gain really good strength with a low body weight. My dad told me he worked with low rep sets 2 build strength but wouldnt this make u gain muscle weight also? If u could please post your comments I would appreciate it. Thank You!
    keep pumping

    i think you are going to gain size if you gain strength because your muscles grow to gain strength, but in your case you dont want to gain size just strength?

    If you lift your gonna gain size no matter what. If your talking about bulking you don't need to get fat but you need the right diet and the right cardio plan.

    Your dad is right. Start powerlifting and eat to maintian your weight but you will have to gain some weight over time but you can still keep it pretty low.

    You would get some good info posting in a powerlifting forum. Either the one on this site or another (see my sig).
