If you feel like doing more do more. If you do overtrain them, well atleast you know now, but unless you give it a go you won't know.

It's a good idea to test your muscles,that premotes growth.Long as your keeping your form fairly strict and not just flinging the wieghts around.That's pretty good progress to keep adding wieght every workout.Keep it up.good job!! DB
