I understand that doing the exact same set x rep x weight (@ the same % of 1RM) scheme at a higher RPE results in higher systemic stress. So, does it make more sense to rearrange Program - 1 to Program - 2 for long term progress? My other motivation is that Program-2 would save me time and effort in moving the barbell and the plates around (my home gym has the rack and deadlift platform in two diagonal corners of the home).
Also, do comment on what you think are the fundamental short comings of this training organisation?
