As I am three years and three months now into the repeat method which is a pillar of A+A training.
For almost four weeks now I am seriously into double bell work. My lift of choice is the clean & pushpress and/or thruster (clean & squat & pushpress). I found that singles are great for gaining momentum and accumulating volume in a session and the weeks. There are many opportunities to be getting a great set up and improve the lift. Also I found that I seem to recover well on a daily basis surely in part because of my extended snatch experience combined with easy aerobic work. A nice addition is, that this double bell work give my hands a great rest from snatching heavy single bells for volume.
an example of how a session looks like:

today I did my first repeat session with 2x48kg, which is well over my bodyweight @ 85kg:

the hr monitor is very good tool to come down to a baseline to "see" when repeat again, although it is not mandatory as "stillness" of breathing is the built in indicator for being repeat-ready. These graphs illustrate nicely, how I do my training-work: power, strength and endurance. Recover, rinse and repeat until...
