Yes. At least right now. For me the goal of the warmup is to practice/remember the correct movement under load. Also remember the 2 preconditions i mentioned one of which was optimizing for time (there is nothing wrong in doing it progressively like you do, but again remember we are "efficient" and optimizing for time). Somehow I doubt that if you are squatting 3 plates you can do this exercises continuously without breaks between sets. My squat right now is at 280. I load 1 plate (135) and warm up with that. After that I go to 280 and do 5x5.
