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.

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.

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.
