I need a short, effective UB workout to do on a day when I want to combine it w/a 30 min. run (I only have about 1 hr to work out). Any suggestions???? Which premixes are really worth doing?

I have PUB, Supersets/PP, and ME.
TIA!

I really enjoy the PUB premixes for this - either the up premix or the down premix clocks in at about 30 mins. I mostly do the Up premix - I actually have it memorized now and can do it without the video.

So, do you do slightly heavier lbs. to compensate for only doing "half" the workout? or is your normal lb. enough? I really like PUB, thought that up or down only would not be enough intesity....
kwim?

what's a

pub
and those other abreviations in the opening question. See I can't even remember what alphabet to use. I hate that cause new people don't have all the dvd and that frustrates me more then not being able to finish a work out:(
 
If you have the SS/PP DVD they both have upper body only premixes that cover all the bases and are done in about 30.

Hi Tytbody,

I'm not new and I find it really frustrating when people use abreviations for the workout, there are so many and I can never figure out which ones people are talking about:)
 
Why can't it be asked here?

PUB - Pyramid Upper Body
PLB - " " lower body
SS - SuperSets
PP - Push Pull
ME - Muscle Endurance
PH - Power Hour
MIS - Max. intensity Strength
MIC - Max intensity cardio
BC- bootcamp
KPC- kick punch crunch
SJP - step jump pump
C&W - cardio and weights

Look at the title of this forum "video and DVD ROTATIONS" (ie: how to use several workouts in routine). I'm sure there would also be more answers to this if it were in the right forum.
 
Just a comment. even the question is not the *so called right forum* people will still scan for new messages and reply. I also don't belive all messages posted in any particular topic *belong* there. Just an observation.

Perhaps, but, for example, I don't visit this part of the forum normally, and wouldn't be "around" except for the fact that I posted a Hardcore rotation and am checking to see if there are any more responses on that thread.
 
Rose2boys, I see you're fairly new here - welcome. If you post in the wrong forum, don't worry about it - there are no rules regarding where you post (although Cathe only likes questions for her in Ask Cathe forum) but Kathyrn is right, you will get more responses in the video discussions or the open forum which are the more frequented forums.

Ditto to the PUB premix recommendation, I usually go heavier with the weights w/ the premix though.
 
OK. Thanks. Also, I thought this ? was in the "right" forum since it's part of a rotation...oh, well. I may re-post in another forum.

rose2boys,

When I'm short on time, I also use PUB - but mainly the pyramid down premix. I find that is I start with a heavy set, it fatigues my muscles nicely, and the rest of the pyramid "burns" a little better.

I also like ME Upper Body Split. I think it clocks in at about 1/2 hour.

They are all abbreviations for Cathe's workouts. If they were for some non-Cathe workouts, I could see your being as annoyed as you seem from your post, but come on!, you're on Cathe's site, you can learn them like everybody else here did, especially since someone took the time to show you what they are (they're pretty logical: PH= Power Hour, etc). It's just part of getting used to a new forum.

Of course if you refuse to, then you'll just come across a lot of messages you don't understand.
