By that logic then, that means all heavyweight powerlifters are weak and don't push hard enough. Somehow, your wrong.I was told if you are putting on fat then your not lifting heavy enough, this could explain the fat gain.
Burning fat is so simple:
Eat 500-1000 cals below maintenence
Get your protein requirements (1-1.5g per pound bw)
Do heavy lifting (preserve muscle)
Do cardio (helps create caloric deficit, burns fat)
Take a good multi vitamin, fish oils
Not much to it! But the discipline to do that consistently for weeks on the other hand...

No don't buy that book. My mate bought it for around $40 I think? The book gives sound advice, but you can EASILY find the same advice for free from good sources.

DJ, the guys on here are helpful, noobs is very helpful, you're just interpreting the comments incorrectly as being a personal attack on you. Deadlift is an exrecise that you can increase the weights reasonably quickly in the early stages i.e. 5/10kg increments per week is what I found.
If you're doing 80x8, try lifting at a 5 rep range. Within a few weeks you should get up to 120+. Stronger lifting will help with muscle gain, 80x8 is quite light weight for a dl, and wont achieve a great deal.
I almost feel like we are talking about two different exercises though, there are a lot of decent sized people in my gym, and I don't often see people deadlifting 150kg+?
Mate no offense but you don't need to know jackshit about lifting to be able to figure out that you add the weight of the bar to determine how much you've lifted. It's usually 20kg for an olympic barbell.
So you are lifting 100 for 8, still bery light for your time training and bw. Ive seen blokes pull the same 1st time pulling. What limits you; back, legs or grip?
