Conclusions

I have found that on an excessive exercise schedule I was able to maintain with a 4 hour core nap and 2-3 twenty minute naps. On the lesser sleeping programs I feel that they are very possible to use if you reduce the amount of exercise and stick to a very strict pattern. This likely means no drinking and drugs (though some drinking could probably be accommodated on the 2.5 or 4 hour schedule.

As far as hanging out with Mary J goes my experience was it made it very difficult to stick to the schedules. I did some research and found that marijuana decreases your ability to get rem sleep (which during these schedule is very important). This was not the largest problem I found when trying it myself however. My largest problem was that I tried sleeping when I was still high. This made it very hard for me to fall asleep as I wanted to just lay there and enjoy the awesome thoughts and realizations. When I spaced it out so there was a large gap between use and napping I found that the naps like my research said were less recuperative probably due to less rem sleep. For these reasons I minimized use during this period.

Alcohol was the bigger killer for me and seemed to be the tipping point that dropped me to different sleep patterns a few times. If you plan on actually drinking and not just having a drink or two its almost impossible to maintain the strict pattern needed for uberman sleep or even the 2.5 hour everyman. Not only this but it instantly made me feel like garbage (of course I drank through this stage) and left me low energy for a couple of days.

I tried using caffeine and pre-workout mix during this sleep period a couple times as well. When I took my pre-workout before going to the gym in the morning I found that the work out was really good cause I had so much energy but trying to fall asleep for my 9am was difficult. I still managed to sleep but I think it was only for like 5 of the 20 minutes (at least that's how it felt). It just didn't make me feel right overall like something was off, I was jittery and even felt a little sick at times so I only used it those couple times.

Well I guess that's it if anyone has any questions about anything post comments and I will respond. Also if I decide to do another thing like this or start uberman again sometime I might blog about it again. I promise to stay on top of the blogs though so it keeps some personality and doesn't become "then this happened and then I felt ok and then I missed a nap.... blah blah blah" really sorry.
