This variant rotates the whole schedule backward to earlier hours. The goal of this is to place 3 sleep blocks at night, leaving only one nap in the day. The core gap also becomes shorter. The first nap is placed in the morning, resembling an [[Everyman]] schedule. The first core will likely cover most of the SWS, while the second core may be mixed (containing both SWS and REM, but likely more REM sleep). Both naps are more likely to contain REM sleep, which can boost dream recall.

In this variant the first nap can also be extended to become a [[pronap]] (30-40m) to better sustain wakefulness and provide more REM sleep. However, this variant has not been tested, with the obvious issue of the early first core conflicting with daily life for most people.
