How long to add 30 pounds to dip? Estimations pls

Looking at my notes mid June I started with 65 pounds 5x5. August 1 105 lbs for almost 5x5. Bodyweight constant ~175.


So roughly 40 lbs in 6-7 weeks. Feasible to get 135 lbs 5x5 by end of September or will it likely start getting much harder to increment?


Last couple weeks have been doing 5x5 Monday & Friday, and 3x8-10 at 60-70% of 5x5 weight on Wednesdays.

You should be able to do this easily in about 3 months.

3 months is longer than I'd like but whatever. Any extra tips?
