I'll be completing HTII in a couple of weeks, and while I haven't decided for sure yet, I think I'll be starting Strength I next and doing the wave loading scenario you described. In HTII, you do varying set/rep ranges (2x25, 3x12, 5x6 and 6x3), so I've got a pretty good idea of the weights I'll be able to manage for 6 reps, 1 rep, etc.
The program calls for a week of rest, so I'll go in to the gym a couple of times that week (I have to to get my health insurance rebate) and do 1 or 2 sets of the exercises to zero in a little closer to the numbers. Besides, even if you're not exactly dialed in to the proper weights your first time through the routine, you'll be getting quite a workout just by throwing something at your body that it is not accustomed to.
