I’m finishing up Day 80/75 of 75 Hard today.
Yup, I wanted to be that guy who did 5 extra days than I needed to.
I’m training myself to consistently do more than is required.
I have always thought myself to be pretty self-disclipined and motivated.
And I’ve always thought I’ve been in pretty good shape.
But there’s nothing like a before and after picture to really humble you!
Compared to when I started, I’m way stronger, leaner, faster, etc.
I am better than my previous self.
And I’m only going to get better.
For the last 80 days, I have:
-Completed two 45-minute workouts a day (with one being outside in rain, snow, freezing temperatures, etc.)
-Finished 1 gallon of water a day
-Had 0 cheat meals, candies, ice cream, etc. (not even a bite of organic dark chocolate)
-Have not had a single drop of alcohol
-Read 10+ pages a day
-Taken a progress picture every day
I’m more determined than ever before to chase my ideal and best self.
And I can see myself being one of the “crazy” people to do this to every year, if not multiple times a year.
I finally stopped making excuses about why I hadn’t done 75 Hard yet, and I’m glad I did it.
If you’re on the fence like I was, don’t lie to yourself. If you haven’t done it, don’t pretend like you already do ”most of it.”
I had fooled myself to believe I did enough to “pretty much have done it.”
Before doing this program:
-I had never worked out 2 times a day consistently
- I had never actually finished drinking a gallon of water a day
-And I definitely had never worked out in 2 degree weather before intentionally.
But now I have!
I have done tons of hard things that my previous self avoided.
And that’s exactly the point of it.
