Urban Iron Class in lieu of weight lifting???

I am pressed for time these days because I have an infant waiting for me at home. I spin 2X a week and the class is intense. I haven't been weight lifting as I should be and I was considering taking this urban iron class that consists of 45-60 minutes of weight lifting. I'm not exactly sure what specific exercises they do. I guess I will find out today. My question is would this be just as beneficial to me as me going around from one exercise to another, i.e. squat, then deadlift, then good morning, then bicep curls, etc. I am trying to save time here. I don't like getting home so late to my baby.

Well, I don't really see how it would save you time, and I'm not really sure how you can challenge yourself in the same ways during a class as you can when you work out individually. 

I'm only guessing, but I can't imagine that during a class you would be lifting very heavy weights.  And if you are doing the same type of movements, why would it take longer to do them alone?

If you go in with a plan, you should be able to get done in 30-45 minutes.  Some programs may have workouts that are a bit longer, but you don't have to follow them 100% to get benefits. 

For instance, some who do NROLFW save the abs/core exercises for later in the day after the kids are in bed, or something.  

You have a good point! I did used to get my weight lifting workout done in about 30-45 mins and I was doing NROLFW. I wasn't losing weight so I stopped to refocus on my food intake and cardio. I do know the importance of resistance training. I just wanted to try the class I guess and I was hoping for good results. I'll let you know tomorrow. Maybe I need to go back to NROLFW...I feel like I'm a newbie again after this pregnancy but I'm not. I just need to focus but for some reason I can't. +

I don't think it will hurt to try and see if you get the results you want for you goals and your lifestyle. If you enjoy it and it works for you then that's all you need to worry about.
