Modifications to Indigo-3G Program

Training
1

I really enjoy the Indigo-3G Hypertrophy program based on the following:

  1. I’m competent in the 3 big lifts (overhead, squat, bench)
  2. I’ve seen great progress with the high frequency of the basic lifts
  3. I like the rep ranges and progression scheme

I’ve done the Hypertrophy program several times and I was wondering if the following tweaks were a good idea or a bad idea.

  1. Incorporate a short ramping layer prior to the Overhead, Squat, and Bench lifts. 5@50%, 3@70%, 1@80%, 1@90%. There’s simply nothing like a turned on nervous system to make the rest of the sets explosive.

  2. Modifying the progression and rep scheme slightly to incorporate more reps in the 4-8 rep range. Wk1=10, Wk2=8, Wk3=8, Wk4=6, Wk5=8, Wk6=6, Wk7=6, Wk8=4, etc…

Thank you!
