8kg bar biceps curls, lifting vertically, 1 set only, to failure, L arm first: 42 R, 25 L. So the order probably has little to do with it.
I've swapped my upper body routine slightly.
Previously was 3 sets of 15-20 on each area...
vertical push (ie shoulders)
horizontal push (ie chest)
pull (ie back)
then 3 sets of 15-20 on biceps/triceps.
Changed to 4 x 15-20 on shoulders/chest/back, but higher weights, and no isolation arm work.
Finding it quite beneficial at the moment.
set + rest = 3 mins . Floor to lock to floor, press-ups.
30 - 25 - 21 - 10 - 11 - 12 - 11 - 11

Another bash today. Dumbbell bicep curls. 2 X 12.5 kg. Simultaneous lifting with both arms. Eccentric lowering. 2 mins break between sets during which I did sets of 30 rep squats. Curl Reps were to failure, per set.

After success at 10 reps per set and repeated failure at 12 reps, I dropped down to 11 reps per set.
EMOM press-ups routine. That's 11 reps (floor to lock to floor) press-ups, every minute, for 10 minutes.
Secs remaining for each of the 10X 1 min sets.
46 - 42 - 46 - 41 - 44 - 41 - 42 - 40 - 39 - 35
Such a fine distinction between relative 'ease' and complete failure with this exercise.

Biceps curls, 8 kg bar lifted vertically, 1 set to failure: 37 R, 27 L. Felt hard from the first rep for some reason.
Well you should be ashamed Mike. Afterall, it's not like you've done much in the way of other exercise recently!! '
