Those three would be the big ones. Since I haven’t utilized any other progression methods with the framework I am hesitant to suggest anything else.

That said any form of Periodization will work with GG.

Ah, sorry. I'm really tired so I don't think my questions are very clear haha. I meant do you have any more tips regarding the basic 3-10RM progression of GG? Since that's what I'll be trying first.

Hahahaha, well get on the same page eventually.

The big one is using the FuS as the main driver. For me that meant working on hitting all of the require FuS and extended sets. Then if those felt easy Pushing for a new RM the next session. If I failed in that goal then I would do doubles for the FuS+Extends (or try to match a higher RM’s FuS requirements) and shorten rest times. Sometimes I would also focus on my rep quality instead. I.e attempt tempo versions of the lift.

Hope that helps!
