Actually I'm in good shape for an office dweller. I'm 6'2", vary between 145 and 150lbs, have low cholesterol, low blood pressure and am generally on the cusp of skinny-muscular. I walk about 2 miles on the average weekday (commute by foot.) I don't explicitly exercise otherwise, but I routinely play football and paintball with friends and never become short of breath.
I do have a combination of both allergies (hayfever) and asthma (standard nerd from the 80s!) but I control both with occasional rescue style prescriptions instead of a daily pill regiment.
The sleep cycle itself feels alot more natural to me. My partner constantly mentions envy in the speed at which I fall asleep each night. That's why I think I've stuck with it. Gives me more awake time away from work (bonus) and feels right.

I don't want to pry, but could you describe your general level of fitness to us?
One day I'm going to try a polyphasic schedule "just because" but I wonder how it would be when getting lots of exercise.
