I train pretty intense, much like a bodybuilder does and I've been at it for a few years now... and I don't think I look overly bulky or gross or anywhere near your "standard bodybuilder"...
You will not achieve that massive muscular look many bodybuilders have by training with freeweights intensely for even a few years... It takes many years, and usually a lot of steroids to get the look that those bodybuilders have.
So don't be "afraid" that you're going to turn out to be a monster if you train with freeweights, because you won't, i can practically guarantee it.
