Which program should I run if I'm coming off of 8 weeks of the Texas Method?

Hey folks!

I have two more weeks on the Texas Method, which I know you disapprove, so I’m trying to transition BBM’s approach rather than following the methodology outlined in Practical Programming.

I have never used RPE. Should I start out with Bridge 1.0 to get familiar with it? Or since I am coming from doing TM, do something like the HLM instead, as I am no longer an intermediate? Would you still consider me an early intermediate trainee?

Which of your intermediate programs would you recommend for a guy who is trying to increase strength without worrying about putting on weight?

My current stats are:
Age: 24
Height: 5’4
Weight: 163lbs
