Ive never done many squats or deadlifts before so I think this will be a perfect routine for me. Ive decide to start with low weights on squats and DL's to work on my form knowing the weight will progress,...especially on the squats since they will be three times a week.

Boondock,
We are close to the same body type as I am 6'3 220lbs and similar BF. How old are you btw? I went into this workout with similar caution in squats and deadlifts. Are you still seeing good gains in all your lifts? Having any lower back pain? Im trying to avoid that...have you read the book by Rippetoe? I just started it.
