Is going 4-day from 3-day advisable on the Bridge 3.0 for further progress?

Dear BBM Staff,

A while back I read a post where Dr. Feigenbaum said one could modify the Bridge 3.0 in order to meet one’s limitations with training sessions.
I am close to finishing my second run of the Bridge 3.0 (I ran it beltless in the first run because I didn’t have a belt).
Would it be a good idea to run the Bridge 3.0 as a four-day program in order to squeeze out some more progress, as prescribed below (by Dr. Feigenbaum in a different thread)?
How do I know when it is time for me to move on from the Bridge 3.0?
I have bought the General Strength and Conditioning not too long ago during the huge SALE week to run it after the Bridge 3.0. Should I run this instead?

So far, my 1@9 has progressed (in pounds) from:

Squat: 195 → 250
Bench: 155 → 170
Deadlift: 225 → 290
Press: 110 → 127
Height: 5’3
Weight: 158lbs
Waist Circumference: 34 inches
Ethnicity: South Korean

Should I be concerned about my waist at my current height, weight, and ethnicity?

From a previous thread:
"Sure, you could do this. I would just make sure the 1st scheduled exercises always come first in a given training session and the 2nd scheduled exercises always come before the 3rd exercises. So consider the following:

Day 1:
exercise 1
exercise 2
exercise 3

Day 2:
exercise 1
exercise 2
exercise 3

Day 3:
exercise 1
exercise 2
exercise 3

NOW BECOMES

Day 1:
Exercise 1
Exercise 2

Day 2:
Exercise 1
Exercise 3 (day 1 originally)

Day 3:
Exercise 1
Exercise 2 (day 2 originally)

Day 4
Exercise 2 (day 3 originally)
Exercise 3 (day 2 originally)
Exercise 3 (day 3 originally)

Eddie,

Once your progress flattens out from Bridge 3.0 as measured by 1 or more e1RM failing to progress (or whatever metric you prefer to use) you could move on. You could also go to the proposed 4 day organization on any of our 3-day programs.

And no, I have no concerns about your WC or weight at this time.

Thank you as always, Dr. Feigenbaum! Have a blessed day!

Kind Regards,
