This variant has a shorter core, 5 hours or less, which usually consists of 3 sleep cycles. One of the most popular proposed forms is 5h + 30m. Similarly to Siesta, the 3-cycle core is extended to 5 hours, which allows to get more light sleep and REM for sustaining E1-shortened. The nap is extended to 30 minutes, which further increases total sleep time and should make the schedule more sustainable. | This variant has a shorter core, 5 hours or less, which usually consists of 3 sleep cycles.
