Do you agree: Go with strength and bulk would come?

This is very correct for the most part.
LBM = lean body mass?
Eating at a caloric surplus will get you big and strong, but will not necessarily increase "lean" body mass.
That's incredible. You can actually see a bulk change in the mirror a few days later?
I would have thought a scale along with pinch calipers would be the first to detect a change, not a mirror image.
But eating a caloric surplus, doing cardio strategically, and taking fat loss aids/metabolic enhancers you can add significant lean mass while staying at a reasonable BF%. I have gained close to 30 pounds in the last year and my BF% has stayed the same if not decreased a little. I have ran a couple PH/DS cycles but no real injectable AAS cycles. I am far from your beastly stature but I am getting there slowly and surely lol. Check out my signature. It sums up my thoughts on this.
once again, SL is correct.
The term "calorc surplus" is quite relative to body weight and lifestyle, if you are doing enough cardio and taking fat burners and pro-hormones, enough to keep our BF% low, then it's not a caloric surplus anymore....unless all the calories are coming from protein, which I doubt you'd be getting that...
I like your signature btw
Repost!!!
The muscles have to grow to with sufficient weight; muscles do not necessarily grow with repetition or speed but will if resistance is involved. A balance of weight, sufficient work and speed is the perfect partnership, but even then that's absolutely useless without generating tension by making it awkward for the body to move. The sole purpose of a powerlifting backsquat is to move as much weight as possible, so it makes sense not to squat right down but to employ more back and butt than leg... to go with strength for strength sake may involve some bulk but not where you want it.
Another poster here rightly suggested that a bigger muscle has good potential for strength so it makes sense to use moderate weights and repetitive movements to enhance strength. It is beneficial to work on strength but not to rely on strength workouts alone, and to sensibly reduce intensity in favour of volume.
I think the chest area reponds well to exercises where the arms are pushing down IE do dips and decline bench. Flat bench does not seem to stress the chest so much as the shoulders and triceps.
