How to Use It

1. Write your challenge name at the top — “75 Hard,” “75 Soft,” or your own custom rules
2. Add the specific daily requirements or goal beneath the name
3. Fill in your start and end dates so the commitment feels real and scheduled
4. Write a reward — something meaningful enough to pull you through Day 38 when you really don’t feel like it
5. Check off one box each day after you complete all your daily tasks
6. Post it somewhere impossible to ignore

Lamination trick: Print on cardstock, laminate it, and use a dry-erase marker. That way you can reuse the same sheet for a second round. (Yes, some people do multiple rounds. It’s a thing.)

Understanding the 75 Hard Challenge

The 75 Hard Challenge was created by Andy Frisella as a mental toughness program. It’s not just a fitness challenge — it’s about building self-discipline across multiple areas at once. Every single day for 75 days, you complete:

• Two 45-minute workouts (one must be outdoors)
• Follow a diet — any structured eating plan, no alcohol, no cheat meals
• Drink 1 gallon of water
• Read 10 pages of a nonfiction or personal development book
• Take a progress photo

Pair this tracker with workout trackers to log each session, and water trackers if you want to track your gallon throughout the day. Doing a lighter version instead? See 75 Medium or 75 Soft.

💡Pro Tip: 75 Soft is the flexible version — no restart rule, one active rest day per week, drink in moderation instead of an alcohol ban. It’s the entry point if 75 Hard feels like too much but you still want 75 days of structure.

75 Medium sits between Hard and Soft — one structured workout a day, a sustainable diet, weekly (not daily) progress photos. It’s built for people who’ve done 75 Hard before and want something they can actually sustain.

Make Your Own 75-Day Challenge

You don’t have to follow any of the named formats. The calendar is just a tracker — fill it with whatever daily commitment you want to hold yourself to for 75 days:

• Write 500 words per day for a novel or blog
• Practice an instrument for 20 minutes
• Walk 8,000 steps every day
• Go to bed by 10pm
• Spend 30 minutes on a side business every day
• No social media before noon

One specific, checkable action per day. That’s the whole system. The habit tracker collection has formats for tracking multiple habits simultaneously if you want to layer a second or third habit on top of your main 75-day challenge.

What Happens at the Midpoint

The hardest stretch of any 75-day challenge is roughly Days 20 through 40. The initial excitement is gone. The end still feels far away. Life gets in the way.

This is the most important thing to know going in: the middle is where the challenge actually happens. The reward field on the calendar is there for a reason — write something meaningful, refer to it on the hard days, and keep checking boxes. If you make it past Day 45, most people find the back half genuinely easier than the front.

After 75 Days: What’s Next?

Finishing a 75-day challenge is a big deal. Most people either roll into a maintenance phase or step up to a longer challenge. Options:

• Another round of 75 Hard (some people do multiple back-to-back)
• Transition to the 90-day challenge calendar for a slightly longer commitment
• Jump to the 100-day challenge calendar for a full century of habit building
• Switch to a monthly habit tracker format to maintain the habits you built

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 75-day challenge calendar?

A 75-day challenge calendar is a one-page tracker with 75 daily checkboxes. You write your challenge, goal, and dates at the top, then check off one box each day you complete your daily tasks. It’s most commonly used for 75 Hard, 75 Soft, and 75 Medium challenges but works for any 75-day commitment.

Is this 75-day challenge calendar free?

Yes. Free PDF and Canva template. Click the download button above. No email required.

How long is 75 days?

75 days is a little under 2.5 months. Start January 1 and you finish March 16. Start September 1 and you finish November 14. The undated format means you write in your own start and end dates.

Do I have to do 75 Hard specifically?

Not at all. This is a blank 75-day tracker — use it for any 75-day commitment you choose. 75 Hard is just the most popular use case for this particular timeframe.

What if I miss a day on 75 Hard?

Per 75 Hard rules, you restart at Day 1 if you miss any task. If you’re doing your own challenge or a softer version, a missed day doesn’t mean you have to restart — just leave that box unchecked and keep going.

How is this different from the 90-day challenge calendar?

Same format, 15 fewer days. The 90-day challenge calendar is better for goals that map onto a full quarter. The 75-day version is specifically designed for the 75-day challenge formats. Both have the same simple checkbox layout.
