Pyramids Up/Down

I've done the up only premixes several times but have recently come off of an 8-wk rotation where I did the Pyramids in their entirety. My goals are always to increase strength -- not to lose bodyfat or weight -- so doing the entire Pyramids worked significantly better for me. If you feel you need to do cardio the same day as weights due to time constraints, weight loss issues or just preference, the up only premixes are a great choice.
I've only done the Bonus Combo once or twice. It's a good total body workout, but I prefer the up only premixes because the workouts flow much more smoothly and the PLB up only premix includes the floorwork whereas the bonus combo does not.
HTH!

Hi Charlene,
May not be your question but I prefer pyramids down over pyramids up. I feel stronger with that heavy weight when working down the pyramid vs up, so I can use more weight while having better form. Maybe give both the premixes a try to see which you prefer. Either one is a great workout when you don't have time to do the entire workout. Pyramids is one of my favorites.
