You’re supposed to start light to build a pattern of success and set PR’s Why get stuck in the 2nd or 3rd cycle? Follow it as recommended. It works. Once you get in the 6th or 7th cycle those weights get quite heavy.
My recommendation would be do it as exactly written.
Doing my 3rd cycle of BBB right now and pretty strictly following the program as written in the book. Let me tell ya - by the time you get into the third cycle, you’re gonna feel like puking. I wasn’t even able to finnish all the volume work without extra pause.

I found that with the 6-week challenge that I really struggled to complete the last two sets of 10 reps at the end of it.
You’re trying to fix something that isn’t broken…
