I am currently basing my lifting workouts off of a collegiate summer training program. The plan calls for lifting twice a week, but I am aiming for 3 days a week. How do I adjust the plan? I don't want to make the jump from 3 x 12 to 3 x 8/4 x 8 too quickly.

Guess you have to show us your plan?

This is the first section of the plan
