Trimaxion (often referred to as Trimax), is a polyphasic pattern of the '''"-maxion" family'''. It is the third scheduling sequence from the original Dymaxion sleep. As with the use of 2 Dymaxion naps in Bimaxion, there is a total of 3 Dymaxion naps in Trimaxion (3 naps = "tri"). Trimaxion is designed with the intent of the second, and '''final transition step''' before Dymaxion, where there are no more core sleeps and only 4 naps of 30m long. Starting with Bimaxion with 2 core sleeps, Trimaxion now replaces the dawn core of Bimaxion with a mere 30m nap and there is only one core sleep remaining. As a result of this reduction, Trimaxion gives a chilling total sleep of only 3 hours each day. Overall, it is still less popular than Bimaxion, and much less popular than Dymaxion.

Given Trimaxion's structure of sleep, it resembles a shortened Everyman 3, with the core sleep only lasting for 1 full cycle (90m). It is classified as an extreme Everyman schedule with 1 core sleep and also more than 1 short nap. However, the concept and design behind Trimaxion still follows the '''Dymaxion-style of sleep''', with each sleep block looking somewhat equidistant from one another. By the standard, there is a sleep block around midnight, sunrise hours, noon and mid/late afternoon. As with the case of Bimaxion, which is placed on "E3-tier" compared to Uberman, Trimaxion is equivalent to "E4-tier" compared to Uberman. There is only one core sleep to support SWS around midnight hours and the glymphatic system at the bare minimum.
