A list titled "75 day medium rules" with a start date of January 22, 2025, and an end date of April 7, 2025. It outlines six rules including one workout, balanced diet, 2-3 liters of water, reading 30 pages, limiting alcohol, and 8 hours of sleep.
A text description of the key differences between 75 Medium and 75 Hard, highlighting one workout per day, permitted cheat meals and moderate alcohol, and less rigid hydration and diet rules. It states 75 Medium is ideal for sustainable habit building.
75Medium rules (January 22- April 7)
Okay, I been seeing 75hard all over social media & finally I decided to do it my self. Never give up. Never surrender. You can do anything if you just put your mind to it. 75hard - seems a little hard for me. I can’t do 2 workouts per day, working full time job. But 75medium seems great
