I'd like to try biphasic sleep. However, my understanding is/was that the nap needs to be 90 minutes because of the 90 minute cycles you're supposed to sleep in?
same situation for me - I work for myself before I go to work.

You don't have to be that religious with the nap time. I hardly ever nap for 90 minutes, usually I wake up after 60 minutes or more. Even a small nap is very refreshing and beneficial in my opinion.
