Absolutely. Actually when people are spending a lot of time working at lower percentages with whatever squat they may be doing I push walkouts a lot for a similar reason. And even if you wanted to turn that into shallow squats or high box squats or whatever...

What I have found is the 'shock' of that heavier barbell on your back can cause you to fail when you actually are quite ready for the lift. It's like there's a feedback system that says, whoa, this seems to heavy, let's shut it down. You don't want to 'forget' what the heavy stuff feels like if you can help it.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
