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.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Going to sound dumb asf but how do you avoid getting big.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

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.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

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.
