This is a blog about how I keep TRYING To use the Uberman

MinusSleep wrote this 1:00 am:

Well, this morning was a sane decision to over sleep. I had some minor back pain due to laying cement etcetera. I wanted to lay down for a bit and just relax, but the thing is that when I’m adjusting to the uberman I can’t do that. I would fall asleep instantly. So I made a decision to just sleep and continue this later. Which should be now.

The decision was completely stupid. Now that I read on webmd.com that I should be exercising my back and trying to use my back instead of waiting for the muscles to weaken. Anyway, after sleeping like 16 hours my back does actually feel better which is a plus.

In other news, my order of the book “Ubersleep” has arrived. So far what I read is pretty good. It’s written in a sort of “trying not to be a book” style. I don’t know what those are called, but many modern insight/instructive books are written in this style. So far I like it. I’ll include a  more in depth review when I’m done with it.

    Great start to a blog, well done. Despite making a site dedicated to it (polyphasiclife.com), I haven’t yet found the time to try it - I’m sure it would agree with me, I’ve never been too good on normal sleep anyway… I’m about to rebuild the site with a new layout and more info, including a links page, would be great if we could exchange.

    That would be nice, let me know when you finish up the renovation so I can check it out.

    Hmm it’s been over 2 weeks since the last update, can we asume that this guy failed?

    Yeah, for now I have taken a break from it. My internet has been extremely sub-par and unstable I’m not able to do anything with it for most hours of the day. My plan is to wait until this is fixed and then return to the uberman. This time around I will be staying awake by playing mainly Broodwar all day on ICCUP. Possibly some pvp in WoW. Dota… whatever. I apologize for the lack of updates. I hope to come back strong… soon. I can’t wait.

    Well, sometimes things just don’t work out the way we want them to. I wish you best of luck for when you do try to start up again.

    Bye for now!

    Hi, a few days after your last blogentry i thought, you felt asleep (for the summarized lack of sleep ^^)

    seems like i wasnt that wrong. anyway.. i’ld advise you to write a small entry what was going on and why you havent wrote any new things.

    Good luck indeed. Three times I’ve tried this, three.. I always failed in the end. It’s really fun to try though. The seriously weird dreams and various strange sleep-related incidents alone make it worth it. Being that tired the first week, however.. I shudder when I think about it. Disgusting stuff.
