LOL Thanks IW.

Talo, I'm not planning on changing the order. The reason is because they're done in a lightest to heaviest sort of fashion. I sacrifice a bit of weight on the heavy guys to maintain a higher intensity on the lower ones.

If I did the workout in the opposite order (1/2 squats to start and end with OHs) I'd absolutely kill the 1/2 squats but then I'd be very fatigued and OHs would most likely kill ME I'd also be leaving alot of weight off the bar, the first set of OHs would probably be an empty bar lol.

OHs are so unforgiving that as soon as you get enough fatigue in there it all falls apart, but at least with a backsquat my form can slip a bit or I can come very close to failure and still pull off a rep. There is some play in the technical aspect of the lift.

With this order I can get the most weight on my OHs and still put up some decent numbers on the backsquats.
