I think it is more designed for gaining strength than for just fat loss and the fat loss that happens is more of a side goal.

I'm not sure that's a fair comparison - a program from a book vs an individualized program with supervised exercise sessions.

I really like your attitude, and I think I do the same thing: stay in my comfort zone when pushing forward, trying more weight will earn me what I crave. Maybe I stay comfy for fear of looking goofy? IDK.
