Until then, I’ll be hanging around my walkable college town for the next several days, followed by time at home with family. Not much heavy mental/physical lifting has to be done.
In reading some of Steve’s polyphasic logs, the idea of starting off with closer spaced 20 minute naps while initially getting used to the routine was mentioned. I plan on starting off with a nap every 3 hours, even taking it down to once every 2 hours (4 hours total per day) if it helps at first. As I get used to it I can then space the naps out more. My regular alarm is an egg timer, so setting it for 20 minutes at a time is no problem. |
Good luck, openeyes. I look forward to seeing your logs, as well as the questions which are sure to arise. Should be good.
