Hello Friends.

When you complete the first 2/3 weeks of 75 hard, it is an adjustment period with lots of pain in the body. However, after 3 weeks, something changes.

You no longer care about alcohol, you can be around people drinking a lot and eating whatever; it does not phase you. This is the first time you feel you can start to go harder and set your sites on amazing challenging that may change your perception of what you can an cannot do!

Hello Everyone

Week 2 was fun and in the books. Now on Day 17, I reflect on a few challenging days and what I learned.

1. Plan, to make sure you have extra food in the fridge you can bring when you are out for a while.

2. Tell friends and family that you are not drinking so you can survive a party.

3. Cheating in a few simple workouts so you can avoid burning out, especially with your family/kids.

4. For best results, plan to get 7.5 hours of sleep or more.

Enjoy

Hi Everyone

1. Tips on starting 75 hard. These tips are listening to Andy's podcast, starting exercising daily even for 10-15 minutes, telling all your friends and family and researching your diets wisely.

2. Reviewing the 7 major components and daily tasks of 75 hard

A) 2 -45 min workouts, one of them has to be outside

B) Drinking a Gallon of water daily (3.9 Liters)

C) Reading 10 pages of a non-fiction book

D) Stick to your diet

E) Taking a progress picture daily

G) No alcohol.

3. Why I am I doing 75 hard again, and what is your end goal with this program?

Hello,

The two largest learning experiences are

1. I do not have to be a fat guy anymore, I can be much, much more

2. I can actually achieve anything if put my mind and body to it

Listen for about those and a full list of other rapid-fire smaller items that are worth going over together!

Well, I finally got it.

Last Friday I went to work for a bit and by the time I got home, I felt sick. I woke up at 230am shivering the next day, but for some reason, I was worried about how am I going to finish my workouts?

I got up at 330am and started lifting weights as sleep was not happening. While in my basement I pulled out a rapid test, 2 lines appeared, I was positive.

I felt in and out of mediocre for the next 2-3 days, yet I still found the courage, and a way to complete my tasks as well as those outdoor workouts, and COLD showers!

Here are my experiences.

75 Hard is an Omnicron killer, well sorta.

If you learn to sleep better, eat better, move better, you will also think better. If you master the elements that 75 hard essentially demands, you will become the happiest and most complete version of yourself.

Here in Ontario they just announced another shutdown. My wife came home having heard the news, tell me complaining. I, however, just did not care. Starting phase 3 on January 1st 2022, there is so much for me to do on any given day that I do not have time to complain. Even today on day 3 I am already much sharper as well as much happier, no challenge is too great when you are constantly overcoming challenges daily! This is why I believe 75 hard, and living life the right way is the best Defence against Omnicron and Covid 19.

In this episode, we revisit 75 hard and talk about the extra tasks during Phase 3.

Remember, your goal is NOT to complete 75 hard, they should be to decide what type of person you want to become for the rest of your life and continue that for the rest of your life for optimal happiness and success!

This year was great!

My kids are good, my wife is great, business was good and we challenged ourselves successfully many times. After completing 75 hard and phase one though, the old habits started again and I gain most of the weight back. After completing phase 2, the same thing happened.

I realized that I had planned my goals wrong. The correct goal was NOT to finish 75 Hard but to become an athlete. To become a runner, to become the best version of myself FULL TIME.

Next year I have already planned some dramatic changes and my goals are much much different. I am not planning to complete 75 hard again, yes I will, but that is not my goal. My goal is to compete in various challenging events, train hard and get back to loving the grind. This is the goal of 2022 and moving forward. This is by far the happiest version of myself that I noticed and others as well.

What are your goals next year and what kind of person do you want to become?
