If you use strength exercise to increase your muscle tissue, you will be heavier (all things being equal) because a given volume of muscle is heavier than that same volume of fat.

However, if you are using strength exercise correctly and eating correctly (healthy foods) as you train, you will simultaneously lose body fat. In other words, your body composition will significantly improve. By that, if you were to lose 10 or 20 pounds of fat while gaining 10 or 20 pounds of muscle, you would look far better, feel better, and be healthier even though your weight did not change

You will not gain more weight fat out weight muscle and muscle does not weight as much so keep strength exercise going.

What happens if lift was greater than weight?

If lift exceeds weight, an object will ascend or accelerate upwards. This imbalance in forces results in a net upward force, causing the object to gain altitude. In aviation, this principle enables an aircraft to take off and climb. Ultimately, sustained lift greater than weight leads to continued ascent until other forces, like drag or altered lift, come into play.
