Is this a good method for progressive overload

[Idkbrah]

1st Friday 3 sets of 40x5
1st Tuesday 3 sets of 40x8 (add 3 reps)
2nd Friday 4 sets of 40x5 (add a set remove 3 reps)
2nd Tuesday 4 sets of 40x8 (add a set and 3 reps)
3rd friday 3 sets of 45x5 (remove set, remove 3 reps, increase weight)

Im doing an upper/lower split so im hitting everything twice a week

Would this work? I made it up and it makes sense to me but i could be wrong. Any other ways to progressively overload?

I am sorry I do not understand your routine, what is this 40? the amount of sets in a workout, if so then that does seem like a lot

[Idkbrah]

40 is the weight x5 is the reps

[Hard_Body]

ok so your using 40 pounds on everything.40x8=320? why dont you just write out the split and what exercises your going to be doing.

[Lifted1]

if you can add 3 more reps or another set per workout, you arent using enough weight.

If you're going to use a method like that just do a 5x5 on one of the days and a 5x8 on the second one, then when you hit all the reps without failing increase the weight by 5-10lb, if you don't hit them all clean then use the same weight and get the extra reps. I suggest starting with a conservative 5x5 and building up. So if your current 4x5 is 40 then do 30-35 for a 5x5.

If you're doing 5x5 and 5x8 the 5x5 should definitely be quite a lot heavier than the 5x8.
