75 Hard: My Version

I have been mentally and physically preparing to begin a 75 hard. Now I read the rules of 75 hard and that was a hard pass. 75 days of 2 workouts a day would completely burn me out and lead me to feeling like a failure. I decided for my first “75 hard” I would modify it to be more my lifestyle and something that will still be a challenge.

I am opting to grant myself grace in this journey and being able to be flexible.

My big differences in my version of the challenge:

- 1 rest day: I am a true believer in rest days - I kinda think only 1 rest day will be a challenge (I normally do 2-3 a week now)

- 1 cheat meal: you gotta live!!

- Self development audiobooks instead of a physical book: I decided to do an audiobook version because I love to read and want to read my physical books before bed

- Measurements: I don’t think this is in the original challenge? But I think this will be nice to see how my body changes during this because sometimes the pictures all look the same to me

What are your best TIPS for 75 Hard?!

2024/4/7 Edited to

The 75 Hard Challenge, a mental toughness program by Andy Frisella, is known for its rigorous requirements, including daily workouts, strict diet, and no cheat meals. However, many participants adapt the challenge to better suit their lifestyles. My approach includes 1 rest day to ensure recovery, and 1 cheat meal to enjoy life a bit. Instead of traditional reading, I prefer self-development audiobooks, which allow me to absorb information while multitasking. Tracking measurements alongside daily progress pictures can reveal changes that may not be visible in photos alone, providing a holistic view of physical transformation. The benefits of such modifications are numerous: they reduce the risk of burnout, encourage consistency, and promote a positive mindset throughout the challenge. If you're considering taking on 75 Hard, I encourage you to reflect on your current lifestyle and find ways to adapt the challenge to make it work for you—after all, the goal is self-improvement and not self-punishment. What tips do you have for balancing challenge and flexibility in fitness routines? Explore community support channels like #75hard and #wellnesslifestyle to connect with others on similar journeys.

One rest day? That's hardcore. I'd probably need at least two, maybe three. I'm thinking about trying a modified version myself, but I'm also really into my current couch-potato lifestyle.

75 hard is just a little too hard for my liking… too restrictive, too intense, and doesn’t allow enough time for rest. i adapted this 75 medium version to fit my fitness, lifestyle, and wellness goals after seeing another creator post one similar 🤍 save this if you’re wanting to join! 🌟
