Anyway, I'm sure there's a physiological component as well, but, mentally, it's just been much better for me. I found myself feeling bored with deads and squats and cutting off entire sets on some workouts because I was just ready to get done. Now, I never feel like shaving anything off of those.

I have read lots of people suggesting to do at least a couple of sets of squats before Bench even if it is not a normal leg day. the idea is that is gets your T flowing so you can have an extra edge when you bench.
