 trying to get back
Hi all,
I was in a polyphasic schedule for a few months a year ago. It was great I was more awake, more alert than on a monophasic schedule and the mid afternoon low dissapeared from my day.
I went on annual leave and took the family on a 4500km (2800mile) week and a half road trip to see family and various other things.
Anyway, after getting back to work I struggled getting back into the bi phasic schedule so I didn't worry about it too much initially.
The problem now is that I fly a lot for work. When I fly I always fly at night and the flights are when I would normally have my naps. Even if I could sleep on the plane the flight I take most often isn't in the air for a whole sleep cycle.
I know really my only option is to have a normal sleep on those nights that I fly but is it worth pursuing a bi phasic pattern when you have to have a normall sleep 2 nights a week?
