Intent. work on your timing and rhythm on the PC+J. Aim to connect each rep together smoothly. Paying attention to how you bring the bar back down to connect the reps will improve your rhythm. Your success here is measured on quality not time = don’t rush the sets or rests, focus on moving well.

Load. You can start @ lower % 1RM and then build up as the reps go down to keep quality unbroken sets.

Option (rep scheme). You can reduce the volume by starting from/moving up to 9 or 8 repetitions instead of 10.
