Like if one guy deadlifted 100 kg for 10 reps, then he got stronger and deadlifts 110 kg for 10 reps. Would he burn more calories then than before?[/quote]
Yes and no.
If the guy in question got more efficient at the movement pattern he might burn the same amount or less calories than before.
If the movement pattern stayed did not improve, but he still got stronger it would mean that he burned more calories.
heavier weight = more work performed = more energy expended
bigger muscles are also less energy efficient

We’re talking about 10 seconds of effort here. The amount of calories burned is going to be so negligible it makes no difference anyway.
If there was a difference, it would be like the 100kg lifter burned 1 calorie, and the 110kg lifter burned 1.00025 calories. Why in the world does this matter to you?[/quote]
That would be only one set, the whole workout is obviusly going to burn calories.[/quote]
Which is a completely different question from the one you asked.[/quote]
What are you an idiot? i obviously asked if equal effort but more weight being lifted would result in more calories being burnt. The reason i choose deadlift has nothing to do with the question i could just as easily chosen a different exercise. If it does, getting stronger would obviously means that the whole workout burns more calories. Which is primarily what i am wondering.

Yeah Mr Popular are you some kind of idiot? His original post clearly doesn’t ask if doing a set of deadlifts with a heavier weight than before would lead to an increase in calories burned. Dummy.
