This physical downturn coincided with my realization that on the Uberman plan, I had more time than I knew what to do with.
I referred back to the list of
tasks I would promised myself I would tackle once I emerged from the"pain and suffering" phase of Uberman.
I didn't let that bug me, though, because I was also in touch with Puredoxyk,
a prolific polyphasic blogger who began writing about her experiences with Uberman in 2000.
Working for myself on my own schedule
meant that I was able to commit to a month of Uberman, and ironically, it was the reason I had little
use for those extra 6 hours a day.
Some converts to Uberman claim that after an adjustment period,
usually lasting anywhere from a week to 3 weeks, they feel no less alert than they would have if they would been clocking 8 hours a night.
So maybe you shouldn't trust me on this one, but in the third week of Uberman, I swear I achieved a level of alertness
and physical well-being that was not that much different from the good old monophasic days.
