I decided to give this a try as well. I was reading about it yesterday and got kind of excited about it. I am a crappy sleeper anyways and usually I only get about 4.5 or so good hours a night. I usually go to bed around 10:30pm and always seem to wake up around 3am and can't really get back to sleep, so I am rather tired through the day. So I was thinking if I go to bed around 1:30am and get up at 6am it would be about the same and then have the nap around 5:30-7pm.
Yesterday I tried napping around 5:30pm but couldn't really fall asleep so I just layed there for about an hour and then got up. I stayed up until 1:30 last night...but when I went to bed I couldn't get to sleep, I got out of bed at 6am and went for my usual 45 minute walk. I am really, really bagged now...sucks. I will try to nap today but I have never really been able to nap, do you "learn" how to nap doing biphasic? I'm gonna keep trying this for the weekend but if I haven't slept by monday I will have to go back to getting to sleep at 10:30 as I won't be able to make it through the work week. will let you know how it goes.
