It was also proposed by '''[[Puredoxyk]]''' in her book ''[[Ubersleep]],'' as part of the '''Formula''' where an Everyman variant is expected to have <u>4-5 naps per day</u><ref>Puredoxyk (2013). ''Ubersleep: Nap-Based Sleep Schedules and the Polyphasic Lifestyle''.</ref> if the core lasts for 1.5h. Despite Puredoxyk's proposal of the schedule, she did not mention any details about how to optimally schedule it. Until recently, the '''[[Polyphasic Discord Community]]''' proposed it as a way to transition to Uberman, because it also has 6 sleeps per day, and the core will be reduced to a nap.

For the most part, E5 adaptation is '''similar to E4''', if not more intense. Even though Puredoxyk suggested that this Everyman variant is possible, '''she actually never attempted it'''. Adaptations to this schedule since then are also '''extremely rare''', and no one has ever been able to adapt to it. All attempts were swiftly blown by the intensified sleep pressure from the schedule, and oversleeps uncontrollably tear the schedule apart. For this reason, it may be better to stay on E5 for a short amount of time, before making an immediate transition to Uberman (fast adaptation), to limit as much built-up sleep deprivation as possible. However, no successful Uberman sleepers are known to have transitioned from E5 either.
