It is with my experience that working with a strength focused workout (working in the 4-6 rep range) while eating a caloric surplus will still result in hypertrophy gains as well. You can think of it as functional hypertrophy. I've heard that it's best to work on the core lifts first (squat, bench press, deadlift, overhead press, row) and get your strength up before starting any form of hypertrophy training.

Goals: Reach 1000lbs total on lifts, then 300, 400, and 500 on bench, squat, and deadlift respectively.
