I was half-joking but still, it saves time to google stuff..
anyway, I've followed the "Intermediatte" program here..

..and it worked well for me. The more advanced "dual factor" version is also used by many people successfully.

Bench Press - bunch of heavy sets
Deadlift - bunch of heavy sets
Squat - bunch of heavy sets

No offense but unless thats done on a periodised routine(whether it be linear, dual factor, conjugated)  like 5 x 5 or soemthing, I dont see it working for long. And good luck squatting after sets of heavy deadlifting, lol.

actually i've known a lot of extremely strong competitive powerlifters who train all three lifts on Saturdays since most meets are held on Saturdays so the meet itself almost becomes like another workout, most of the strongest guys of the 70's like Jim Williams, John Kuc, Hugh Cassidy, Don Reinhoudt, Jon Cole all trained like that.

Having a three week rotation with a light week, moderate week, and an all-out week could work for you.

No need to have the light week for all lifts at the same time either, while you go all out on squats you could have your light week for deadlift eg.

Just some "food for thoughts"

And generally, don't go overboard with sets.

the guys who i've seen train all three lifts in the same day always pulled directly after squats because there is already some blood in the lower back and the muscles are already activated, i was surprised when i did it how much stronger i felt on the deadlift, it's a bitch for a few days after though.
