But tonights wednesday and im going to workout in about 30-45 mins and I dont know if I can Make up both Mon/ Tues... Or Should I break Mon w/ today and Tuesday w/ tommorrow... Im already tired...

Thx For Your Help...

Hmm would it be possible to cut your hours a little bit at work if not thats a shame you possibly could consider goin to gym early in the morning get workout then quick shower then to work.

Is that even legal to have a minor work more than 40 hrs in a week?

have you seen a doctor about those headaches?

No, no more than 40 but he may work with say his dad or something helping out all day though I could be wronged or maybe he has 2 jobs and keeps it shushed up about going over 40. But just dome ideas in my head :)

im 16 and some days i work 14 hours (entertainment business) its off the books but i think it is illegal (working that much) and your not allow to work past a certaint time. as far as making up the workouts honestly i would just forget about them dont try to make them up when you miss them they are lost days. I would say workout in the morning if you can then but since your running on the tight schedule coming home late and then working out early in the morning isnt a good idea. try to schedule your time as best as possible and never waste any time during the day thats usually how i will do things if i have lots of stuff to accomplish in one day.

14 hrs isn't working too much as a minor.

But what exactly is the entertainment business? ;) Do you provide "company" for people? Maybe a lap dance or two? LOL

no its like 14 hours a day every day for a week and no im not a male stripper lol i always love the response when i tell people the job that i have 99% of the time thats the next question i get. its mostly like being a Dj catering roadie (dj's assistant) mc, things like that

oh, 14 hours A DAY! That should be illegal for us adults, too! (even though at the moment I work exactly ZERO hours a week)

And how many days do you work 14 hrs? Probably Sat & Sun.

Plus "off the books" is illegal for other reasons, but I doubt anyone really cares about that.

On second thought, PM your Social Security Number and your employers name. I'll contact the IRS and find out for you...(l0l)

i worked 4 14 hour days made ALOT of money those few days so the work wasnt that bad, but i was permentatly tired the next day (today)

and the whole IRS thing ill only use that as my weapon if my boss tries to mess with me :D

Headaches
 

Linebacker.........Go to the doctor and get the headaches checked.....If you have had them that long there may be serious problems.......I do not want to scare you but I lost my mother to a cerebral anyeurism that ruptured and she died immediately in her sleep (an anyeurism is a weak spot in the blood vessel that creates like a balloon, You can live with them but things like alcohol, high blood pressure, stress etc. has a serious effect on them)........Her complaint for a week or two before.....POUNDING HEADACHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do know people that just get serious migraines but man for you sake PLEASE go ang get checked out.......................

good advice...but i think its from those working hours thats gettin to him your young all you should care about now is paying for your gym membership your supplements, pounds of chicken, and saving some money for college

Pretty soon hes going to have to worry about car insurance my parents can buy supps for me but the insurance is all me.

Alright, here's my two cents. First off, I admire your working so many hours at your age. I did the same. I sorta have the same problem as you. I work 60 hours a week (5 days 12 hour bodyguarding) shifts. Now include a 2 hour drive in rush hour per day from Bev. Hills to my house. I still hit the gym an hour a day. So I guess it depends on how bad you want it. I also suffer from killer headaches (non-migranes)->Started since I came home from Iraq. Do you have migranes? If it's a tension headache then stop whinning ;) BTW, I know some of you will be curious as to why I think my problems come from Iraq. I can easily think of a few good ones...(I know everyone likes to hear cool stories)
1.We lived in a landfill for 4 days and 3 nights. For us grunts that means digging a skirmishers trench for a bed and good night. The worst part was that the place was completely lined with DPICM mines! :eek:
2.One of our biggest firefights we had to assault a town and it was surrounded by a chest deep moat of actual sewerage.
3.ect.ect.ect...You get my point.

Back to the issue. I feel HST is the answer for you for a couple different reasons.
1.Only make it 3 days a week to the gym. (M,W,F)
2.Aside from 3 or 4 workouts, you never train to failure so fatigue won't be a problem.
3.It's designed to not use heavy weights until the last 1-2 workouts of every mesocycle.
4.I think it's the absolute best program for someone like you.

Instead of just giving you a link to set it up yourself like some do, just pm me and I'll set you up nice.

I work 7 days a week, I am also a full time student, and I always have time for gym, so I dont know what the hell u are complaining about.

Get a home gym or a few weights at home so that way you dont have to go to gym for every workout.

Its not Possibly, For the next 5 weeks until school starts Im going to be working as much as possibly, I got 56 1/2 hours for this week and Im probley going to more for the next 5 weeks...

To:BradG

Yes im sure it is illegal,im not going to say anything though because my parents aint going to be buying me crap (unlike alot of other kids)... I need to save up for a car + insurance so I can quit and only do side work on sat at a cabinet shop because I got all Ap + Honors classes and also I have football on the side... ( Im shooting for 1st in my class out of 668 ) So Thats what I need to concentrate on... ( Im also going to have to get myself into collage)...

To:Keith11072

Thanks for the concern... Im honestly thinking about going and seeing whats wrong... Im having a minor one right now but its not as bad as often...

To:Verbatimreturned

I wish I could, I buy all my stuff I pretty much fully take care of myself rather than the roof over head and all that...I pay my own cell phone bills + whatever I need... Theres no money for collage Im shooting for a full paid scholarship to a university....

To:WantingMuscle7

I wish they would take care of it...

To:0311

Thanks for the nice words.Yes they are migranes (I cant even stay in a dim lighted room)...

To:Apocalypse

First Off Im not complaining Im looking for opinions + help, second off (Why is their always a Asshole)... Rather than saying that why not tell me your daily Schedule???

To:WantingMuscle7

Would but I cant spare any money I workout at my cousin's full gym (about a ten minute drive)...

P.S Sorry about that reply wait!!!

Wow I hope you can get a full scholarship if you put as much time into school work as you do working you'll be doing very good. As for apoc hes just like that I use to think of him that way but hes cool now. Good luck at trying to accomplish all your goals.

Thanks Bro...

Why do I have to be the asshole all the time?? I wasnt trying to be one, it might be all the testo flowing through my veins. Anyway, I get up at 6 in the morning, and takes a shower, brush my teeth, blaahahha, and then head to school. My classes starts at 8:00, gotta hate the 3000 level chemistry and bio courses. Anyway, I have two hour break from 12-2, so I head to the gym, do my workout and then take another shower and go back to classes if I feel like it. I get out around 3:30, then I have to be at work by four. I get out of work by about 10:30, and its really close to my house, so I have about an hour and a half to study and do my homework. Ofcourse, u cant forget ur best friend, sleep 12-6, and the schedule goes on and on and on, except for minor changes in saturday and sunday, those days I dont get up until 12 in the afternoon.

Ok well Thanks for showing me the schedule u sound quite busy,atleast I know now I aint the only one... I take It back If it means anything...

lmfao, the best part about apoc's schedule

Yeah :cool:
