The Quad Core (QC) family of schedules, the newest schedule group, are very unusual in structure and thus very unpopular due to the intrusive sleep blocks, difficulty in scheduling and wake time activities. They are the series of schedules that contain 4 [[Cores|core]] sleeps, totaling at least 6h sleep.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/polyphasic/comments/g2j083/official_new_polyphasic_schedule_released_success/ polyphasic subreddit]. Retrieved 17-11-2020.</ref> So far, the only tried-and-successful schedule in this category is Quad Core 0 (QC0). Mostly because of the heavy focus on core sleeps, QC schedule(s) have a very low number of [[naps]], or no naps at all.

The first QC schedule, QC0, contains '''no naps and only 4 core sleeps'''. It was briefly mentioned in the [https://www.amazon.com/Ubersleep-Nap-Based-Schedules-Polyphasic-Lifestyle-ebook/dp/B00E1XAD7W/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=ubersleep&qid=1605240955&sr=8-1 Ubersleep]book by Puredoxyk under the name  “Alternate Segmented” variant. However, there was no adaptation success ever reported at that date, until 2020. No optimal scheduling was mentioned in the book either. There have been some attempts up to date, but with limited success. Currently, QC0 is one of the 5 polyphasic schedules with ''only core sleeps'' (the other 4 being [[Segmented]], [[Siesta]], [[CAMAYL]] and [[Triphasic]]).
