Default Staying small.

I know this is sort of a heterodox question to be asking on a bodybuilding forum, but I am interested in learning to rock climb and would like advice on how to gain as much muscle strength as possible while staying as small and light as possible.

Should I be doing fewer reps at more weight? Will taking supplements cause me to gain bulk that I am trying to avoid? Is there any special way to be eating other than a normal healthy diet?

Also, I have some extra fat around my abdomen and thighs that could would be nice to get rid of. Is cardiovascular exercise the best option for this? If so what kind? I live in an extremely hilly area and ride my bike sometimes, but I am afraid that if I start to do that regularly I will gain extra leg mass than I want.

Thanks!
