Increase Strength + Muscular Endurance?

[PTalways]

im interested in gaining strength, but at the same time using weight training to increase muscular and cardiovacular endurance, so ive started doing 1 3 minute set.
for instance:
chest press at 180pnds for 3 minutes, after 10-12 reps i have to take a 15 second rest, then i keep going and i usually can only another do 4-5 reps. anf ter another 15-20 seconds of rest i can do 3 reps. by 2 minutes im at point of failure and cannot even do 1 rep, but i keep trying until my last minute is done.

criticisms?

Check out GVT 10x10, essentially you wouldnt be doing much weight to start but your increasing the weight by 5-10lbs per workout (Atleast thats how much Im increasing it by) and essentially you would be pushing your 60% up which means your max as well.

if my 60% weight for squat is 145 then essentially if I can do 10x10 of 180 I would have effectively increased my max.

For what purpose? There's undoubtedly a better method to increase endurance than you are using, but we need to know what you want to be able to do.

im a soldier. i when we do attacks it involves dropping to the ground and pushing yourself back up with 45 pounds of kit on your body with only one arm. many medium intensity movements many times
