I did the UB workout today. I have to admit that I appreciate the low equipment and quick workout times of Kelly's workouts.
tltinatl, I think "Don't stop because it's hard. Keep going because it's hard." would make a great signature quote for you!

I did Split Sessions Upper Body this morning. I really like this workout. This workout is what I have been wanting for the most part. A time efficient, push-pull workout.
Here are a few thoughts I have and a couple of minor modifications I made: With two sets you could increase or decrease the weights on the second set, making it a mini pyramid up or down. I did modify a couple of the exercises a bit because my right upper shoulder/neck have been stiff the past two days and I'd rather not have it flare up. For chest flys I subbed a chest press on the second set (did flys on the first round at 10# instead of 15#). I did this to keep myself from shrugging my shoulders and compensating for a heavy weight since I haven't really done that much weight training as of late and since I didn't know the workout, I thought I would play it safe. On the standing overhead triceps extensions I subbed a lying double arm french press on the incline bench and for decline triceps dips I did a triceps press on the bench (the kind where you keep your elbows by your ribcage and press upwards with palms facing your sides). On the upright rows I substituted double-arm side lateral raise with a slight anterior tilt to help keep my traps out of the movement. Since she is going slow (3 up, 1 down) I could focus on keeping the traps out of it at a lighter weight (8#). I really enjoyed this workout. Hoping to do lower body tomorrow!
