Status: offline 		hey... whell in a week or so im going on holiday and when i get back im starting a clean bulk, but since i started training (8 weeks ago) i have been seeing dramatic muscle gains but hardly any strengh growth... i saw a big spurt of strengh in my first 2 weeks of my program but then i actually think ive gotten weaker (and its not overtrainig i know that fore a fact) ive been adding a little more weight to the bar so i might get a bit stronger but the real question is.......... when im starting this clean bulk should i build up my strengh with it??........ also how do i build my strengh do i just keep adding more weight or do i have to do something more?

yeah you need more weights. you are not going to gain strength with reps of 16 and 50.
