yea look at bruce lee he trained in strength. Lift heavy and keep the reps really low.

hmmm well im pretty bulky myself.I try my hardest not to gain muscle so thats a hard task. If u dont wanna get bulky then weights arnt the way weights=bulkyness. I would do Plyometrics if I were u. Thats what I do and my power has increased.That and hitting the heavybag,and basic technique.

u would have lean muscle but still muscle. But if your small go ahead and bulk up.It should help u.

Just dont eat too much food, do not exceed certain amount of calories(in your case its prolly 2500-3000) and eat lean foods(whole grain products and lean meat) and you will not gain mass.
