Hello there, I've tried the Uberman-2 schedule (4.5 hours of core sleep and 2 20 minute naps) semi-successfully earlier this year, but my timing was kind of bad since I tried to start it in the last week before University started and I had to cancel and go back to a "normal" sleep schedule.
Now that semester vacations have started, I'll give it another go, since it worked really well for the short period that I tried it. "Accidentally", I had only 4.5 hours of sleep last night so I thought today was a good day to start up again.
My problem is that I cannot regularly take my naps, so I will probably have to make up solutions as I go. Perhaps you'll have some advice for me, otherwise I hope you enjoy this kind of sleep-diary.
Night 1 (07/19 - 07/20): 4.5 hours, 1AM - 5:30AM
Felt surprisingly well in the morning, but I got really tired when I returned from work.
Nap 1: 25 minutes, 2PM - 2:25PM
It refreshed me pretty nicely. Unfortunately I couldn't take my second nap, so I will try to get three tomorrow.
One thing I accidentally discovered was my result on Brain Age for the Nintendo DS. I gave it a go for fun (haven't played it in a long time) and surprisingly, just before going to bed (and feeling horribly tired), my Brain Age is 22, the same as my actual age. I don't know if I will keep taking the test before heading to bed every day, but I thought it was a fun detail to throw in.
Night 2 (07/20 - 07/21): 11:30PM - 4AM
