I'm pretty big on goals, so let's dig into what you're wanting here.
If your progress is great and you just want to go to the the gym, then I'd just go to the gym and maybe walk on the treadmill - just to have something to do. You could do some light stretching and pretty much basically be there.
The question here is WHY do you want to be in the gym?
-To Train
-To do something other than be at home or elsewhere
-Because the gym, training is your favorite place to be / thing to do
-This sort of thing.

When you say "productive for your body and body composition," what do you mean by this?
Productive for you body might mean helping in recovery - maybe a weekly massage would help out. Is there a massage therapist at your gym?...
Helping with body composition could be cardio if you work a low activity job and find that Tier I is your best bet.

So, coming up with a reason to go to the gym without having some (more) specific purpose in mind is a tough one for me. (I do know people who go to the gym just to be there, but typically they don't train that hard even when they do train. Just hanging out at the gym can sometimes make it tougher to get into a training zone when it's actual go time - just ask personal trainers who work all day at the same gym.)

thanks Scott..
let me clarrify some things..
right now im at basic tier 2 and doing great ..im ok with the volume and all..
as you said i could splitt the loading and pump sets but than the volume would be to low for me in a single workout..
i want to be in the gym more days as opposed to the 4 workouts of FT cause i have energy to spare and i like to exercise..
doing cardio is a bit boring and seems like you dont acchive anything..( this is false of cource cause obviously offers much like fat loss, blood flow, recuperation etc..but you know what i mean ...walking on a treadmil is boring..ha ha)
so i was looking for ways to assist at my body composition meaning more muscle mass less bodyfat and generral something to help me for a bigger yet leaner body ..
i was thinking something like the john meadows "pump workouts " but i want you to guide me on what i should do exactly and how to structure such workouts while training FT..
