Another option that you should look into is switching to a four day, ten hour each day schedule. Of course your employer has to approve and I’ve seen a lot of people that can’t keep up with the long days, but if 5am schedule works for in the long term you shouldn’t have any issues with it. I've done this for the last four years and it really works well for me. It gives me the option to work on my personnel projects on my off day (Friday for me). It also forces you to wake up early and the morning always seems productive. The best part is you can be flexible with that time, like on some weeks maybe you take a long trip or family/friend time.
