Strong curves - just start all over?

Hi
I followed strong curves for quite a while (5 months) and really enjoyed it. I am done now (I went slow and did every 4 week section for longer) and was thinking I could just start over and increase weights compared to the first time. I am doing the advanced lifting program, it is 3 4-week plans, so I'd go back to week 1-4.
I don't have time right now to wrap my head around a new program.

Anyone done that? Should work, right? Any reason I don't see not to?

    I didn't do the advanced program, but I did the lower body program. I continued the last 4 weeks (9-12) and kept the main lifts the same but changed my accessory work to exercises (from weeks 1-4 or 5-8) I liked and felt the most in the glutes. You can really do anything you prefer as long as you adjust the weights accordingly.

    increased resistance?

    I've never done strong curves but isn't that the point?

    I would probably go back and start at week 5. You could also look in the book at Chapter 7 where he gives you a template to make your own program. That way you can pick the exercises you like best from the 3 phases of the beginner plan and put them together.
