Notes - On suggestion of Ross I am subbing out the single C&P with the 28 for PPR for some time so I can hone this skill.  Really a pretty good training session and given the focus on one lift, more volume than usual which was good.  The 16s and 20s felt good and I was getting decent hip snap.

For DBs, 16s were good, 20s, hard to get consistent hip snap.  The DBs felt a bit odd with legs having to be so wide.  On the DB C&P the wide stance feels good, but here, I wanted to be narrower but moving the legs around seemed like a waste of both time and that I would lose tension.

24s were hit and miss despite the fact I can DB C&P these for many sets/reps.

We are going at the PPR again tomorrow and hopefully today's session built some muscle memory vs. fatiguing me too much for tomorrow.
