Pushing film just means to underexpose it and then extend the development. The actual ISO of this film is about 800-1200 depending on who you ask, so to shoot it at 3,200 you are severely underexposing it. If you'd develop it as you would for ISO 1000 you'd have underexposed, underdeveloped negs...so you over develop the negatives.
Unless you have some specific reason for shooting this particular film, why not shoot something else?
I love film but I wouldn't use high speed film. At high speed like 3200 ISO film can't hold a candle to digital. When I shoot film I only use ISO 100 or 160 that is the lowest speed film available. Some like the grain of film but using film for more than 40 years I never like the grain just like I don't like the noise of digital. They are both the down side of the medium not the up side.
