hello friends.
I started doing the ABC program from the app this week and I have some newbie questions about it.
a.- is it a big change if I use double KBs? I was doing the giant right before this one so I figured I'd keep using the same 16kg pair as before
b.- time. why is it limited to 30min? if I shorten the rest periods I end up doing more reps at the cost of more fatigue (like on monday I ended up doing 60 C&P total but had to start the next set with HR above 140bpm and peaked at 176bpm). If I do it autoregulated a la S&S I end up doing less reps or go above the time prescribed
c.- one thing I assumed is having to do a clean before a press but re reading the overview it only says MP
thanks in advance

A. Dbl.'s are fine, maybe preferred, unless you want the extra squat reps.
B. Have not heard of a 30 min. limit on ABC, have heard shoot for 12-15- 18 or so very solid rounds.
C. 2 Cleans 1 Press 3 Squats, The press is ready to go after the second clean.
