So, uhm, nap frequency might take the shape of a polynomial curve during the first few days, lol.

It's no problem to nap as much as 15 times a day or so during the first couple of days or weeks, after all, even that is a reduction of several hours from your usual amount of sleep.|sign=Rasmus|source=https://web.archive.org/web/20120114074002/http://trypolyphasic.com/forum/topic/154/spamayl-plan-discussion/page/2 trypolyphasic.com forum (2010)]}}

However, others noted that they usually required a longer wake gap (~1.5 hours) between naps for them to be effective and not result in difficult wakes. This allows them to be fully alert during those wake gaps, and reduces the risk of naps becoming interrupted cores, which are of much lower quality.
