It was my rest day yesterday. All I did was take my dog for 2 walks. No working out, nobody dropped a plate on my foot, I didn't even stub my toe. I woke up today feeling like I broke my big toe and can't really put weight on it. I won't be doing any squats for a while and will have to modify everything else where I needed to have some weight on my toes. Girlie push-ups are in my immediate future all because in one's mid 40s it is possible to get injured sleeping somehow.

You don't need an app, but the study of sleep is pretty interesting. There are people who take it to the extreme and will sleep for exactly one sleep cycle in the night, and then 12 hours later, they sleep for one more sleep cycle. They aren't tired at all, have a ton of energy BUT it requires great dedication to a schedule and being able to not be bugged in the middle of the day to get a nap in. They get to do a lot more with their lives as they sleep very little, but the dedication is extreme and if they miss on of those cycles, their day is fucked.

I only thought the subject might be of interest to you since you said you sleep less as you have gotten older, and maybe you would want to sleep even less without any bad side effects.

my bad, sounded like you were trying to help me "fix" my sleep or something.

I think im naturally approaching something like that. As i let my sleep adjust and do what it needs, ive come to the point where im basically doing the old style of two sleeps with a period of wakefulness in the middle. If i can further detach from modern society, my middle wakeful period might extend to the point where i end up doing something like 12 hour days with very short sleeps between.

I want to try your sleep schedule out, but am at least 5 years away from being able to do so.

detaching from the "modern society" as much as possible really helps it out. Self employment, and no desire to go do anything that "normal" people do. Visit any stores as few and far between as possible. Do work quickly and efficiently so it doesnt take all day over many days. And detach from materialistic desires so you dont feel the need to spend a billion dollars on all the new and shiny cool things that the consumers just gotta have. If hippie communes werent full of dirty retarded hippies, Id be living in one of those rather than a normal place.

On that topic, I have a dream of creating a highly conservative simple community. I hesitate to call it a commune, because communism is gay, but a community working together to be self sustainable and off the grid and detached from the poison of modern society sounds pretty fuckin great to me. If anyone knows of one that exists already, clue me in, cuz i cant find one anywhere. Otherwise, if anyone that has the land or the wealth or the power to get us out of the system, IM IN.
