Any serious bodybuilders out there that have experimented with polyphasic sleep? I am dubious that it is possible as recovery from heavy workouts requires a lot of rest and at the moment I need 9 hours a night to stay healthy, including some daytime naps. Also, many people who experiment with polyphasic sleep look a bit underweight (judging by their blogs).
Steve seemed OK, but he was not pumping iron heavy once or twice a day and he looks pretty lean to me.
