Yeah you can see why the Bulgarians aren't very big compared to the Russians - mass wise.

But they are way stronger lb for lb. Its due to the training styles
Low volume, heavy singles work for the Bulgarians --> CNS heavy


vs Russians with realitvely lighter weights, higher reps and tons more variants and exercise variety - constant exercise rotations etc
CNS+ lots more muscle protein turnover.

So if I want to get stronger without getting any bigger I should train heavy, low volume, and slowly work up to a high training frequency.
 
well stick with doubles and singles, train heavy when you can for neural work, and low volume to minimise hypertrophy.

Frequency is something you will have to figure out since, you need it to be frequent if volume is low. But you need to be able to do so without burning out :)

yea, this will be very tricky for me since I am still figuring out my recovery times.
