I'm not really sure if this would go in the Advice Thread or the Questions Thread, but since it is more than a question, I figured it would go here.
Anyways, I have been working on getting "ripped" for several months now, but I haven't had professional training, and have simply been going to the gym a lot. I've gone to the gym almost every day this summer, and I've already gained about 3 pounds (I'm currently at 140 lbs). My friends have pointed out that my pectoral muscles are noticeably larger (they stick out from the sides, which is cool, but not from the bottom, which I need to work on).
I've found this website that has specific 12-week-plans, or just body building advice in general:

Rather than just going off my own improvised routine and not even paying attention to my diet (though I generally eat healthy food, and I NEVER have junk food and I NEVER drink soda), I figured I should actually follow a routine if I want better results. Unfortunately, there's only about 6 weeks of summer left, and my schedule is already busy enough due to my job, and during the school year I'm always involved in a lot of activities, so it's going to be hard for me to do a 12-week schedule.
So my question is, which one should I do:
1) simply have a workout/diet schedule that's exactly the same every week (
this schedule, in particular) until the school year starts
2) should I do a 12-week-program (
such as this) despite the inevitable scheduling conflicts when the school year starts (AKA quit the program once school starts, since I'll only be able to hit the gym on weekends)
