Was wondering because of my switch this is starting to happen to me. Strength is still going up but my size is going down. It has always worked in conjunction with each other that the strogner you grow your muscles intend to grow also. Mine is happening in reverse order, from what I have switched to. Might be the different As not kicking in yet but then why would the strength continue to go up??? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Whats your training like? Is your volume too low? For me, strength and size do not go hand in hand. My muscles will grow much quicker and easier than it is for them to get stronger. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I have had the same thing happen. My muscle mass was increasing making me stronger, but I was also losing fat(and yes I was eating a boatload) so the size didn't go up as much as I had hoped. Everyone tells me I've gotten huge ![]() 5'10" 230lbs 10%bf ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Well I have gone from a 4 dya training routine to a 5 day, where I hit upper body on Monday & Wednesday, and lower on Tuesday and Thursday. With Saturday being a all over day. I have been on this for I woudl say a month now. Still eating the same and still training like I was, but strength is increasing but size is decreasing. And not due to losing fat. Most of that is gone already. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
