How do muscles get stronger without getting “bigger”?

I can squat 10 more pounds than I could 6 weeks ago, but my body weight hasn’t changed. In the same vein, I’ve seen skinny dudes rip 300 pounds off the floor.

A lot of it is just kind of how each individual is made. That being said, doing things like eating right or doing yoga can help with your situation I think. Muscle weighs something like 4 times as much as fat, so as you build muscle your weight can go up without physically getting bigger. And yoga can help make longer stronger muscles to fill in your body.
