Title says it all - sometimes I see referenced that this thread has been done to death already but I can't seem to find good info on this matter. Here are the specifics of this case (the case of me grappling with people and trying to win):
* I can deadlift almost 2 times my BW, bench 1.25 times my BW and squat ~1.6*BW. So I'm not very strong.
* My BF% is somewhere around 20, according to estimates made by some people I know who are educated in these matters. I don't have a hard time losing weight, but I don't know about remaining strong.
* I'm getting stronger seemingly by the minute, PRs every time I go to the weight room. I also have an easy time gaining weight.
Should I drop a weight class or two (I weigh 187 lbs) or should I just keep getting stronger? Is there a known strategy that's more beneficial than the other?
