Fitness programming normally follows a methodology that is the exact opposite of this to reduce injury rates. Steady, consistent incremental increases to intensity, volume, or frequency over the course of a 2-3 month macro cycle.
I'm not saying yours is a bad idea, but, from everything I know about fitness, this sounds like designing for injury.

The idea is that you body doesn’t require hours and hours of exercise to make change, just enough signal that the your current strength is not enough, and enough time and food for your cells to do the work. I wouldn’t do it with an amount of weight that is dangerous or with fast movement.
