I'm doing a similar routine with a m/w/f split alternating deadlifts and front squats but may change it because of the fatigue issue, as I also lift using low reps and the deadlifts might be too much.
I agree with this which is why I was thinking that once I hit the wall on PP singles I'm going to switch to A/B workouts. It will look like this:
A: Squat, PP, Row
B: Front Squat, CG BP, DL
I'll just alternate each one so in a 2 week span I'll do each WO three times. So, week 1: MWF...A, B, A & week 2: MWF...B, A, B.
Today:
Push press: 95x5; 135x3; 155x1; 175x1; 6 @ 185x1
Squat: 135x5; 185x3; 205x1; 225x1; 245x1; 255x1; 265x1; 270x1
Bent over barbell row: 135x5; 155x3; 175x2; 190x2; 200x2; 210x2
