Protocol For Alternating Exercises In A Block...?

For example, doing deads one day, then squats the next exercise day... How do you typically follow? For example, if I'm doing 10lbs increments, 200lbs on my dead, then 210lbs on my squat, the next time on deads I go for 220lbs to keep the standard progression...?
Or is it better to do, say, deads for the whole 10rm block then move to squats on the 5rm's? Then next cycle, reverse the order...?
Thanks
 
Covered in the e-book ... and a million other places. Do a forum search. Read the HST home-page.
 
Pretty sure I wrote about this extensively in the ebook. Do not make the mistake of mixing together the progression of two entirely different exercises. One has no relevance to the progression of the other.
 
You don't do that with bench presses and shoulder presses. Alternate them by all means but the respective loads are independent.
