I love lifting, I was a gymnast for 17 years and I get very bulky but perhaps I am doing the wrong routines, what did you do?

I've lost almost 30 pounds over the last year, and a lot of that is because of strength training. I know the idea of lifting weights can be intimidating if you haven't done it before or haven't done it in a long time (I don't know if that applies to you, but it did to me when I started). I'll be happy to recommend some resources and/or offer suggestions if that interests you-- just let me know :)
