2-A-Days Not Easy... I wish I could get more sleep

Everything I've read says that I need at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep.  On a good day I get 6 hours and it isn't uncommon to get by on 5 or less hours on some days.

It's the lack of sleep that's interfering with my plan to do 2-A-Day workouts.  I normally wake up at 4:15am.  In order to get a morning workout I need to get up around 3:30am.  That would be fine except that I can never get to bed before 10:30pm (usually its about 11pm).

Over the next few weeks I'm going to experiment with 2-A-Day workouts on Saturdays and Sundays when I have a little more control over my sleep schedule.  If I'm able to do these double workouts and I don't feel too tired as a result, then maybe I can push myself to do them on the weekdays too.
