I obviously wanna become more toned and strong so I've been going to gym but all my life I put on size quite quickly and it's annoyingly for one reason. I don't want to be big. I obviously want to be to ed and muscular but I feel like I'm heading towards the body builder type thing which isn't what I want. Is there a way to increase strength with weight without becoming big.
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Going to sound dumb asf but how do you avoid getting big.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Yes, eat less. Size is directly correlated with caloric intake.

There is no such thing as “too big” for a natural. Your body has its own genetic limit.

At the end of the day, none of this is needed. The only thing needed is to consume fewer calories which limits your ability to build muscle.
But wouldn't that limit how much strength I'm gaining because it impacts muscle growth ?

So will all the other things. You want a magic solution that gives you both but there isn't one.
