Looking at the rules of the 75 hard, I'd advise against drinking a gallon of water everyday which is apparently almost 4 liters of water. There is such thing as drinking too much water.
4 l might be a lot, but it’s not too much for someone active. Something like 10 l would be way too much, but 4 l is totally fine if you workout and have an active lifestyle.
Or people should add salt to their water to help with electrolyte loss…
Not a lot of water for me if I drink it throughout the day. And I am active❤
Actually, 1 gal is appropriate for active people especially in warm areas. I am a physician & a Cardiologist advised this to me years ago. Agree w/ electrolytes a trace minerals / pinch of salt. (This is not medical advice).
I'm doing this! Except for the gallon of water. I drink a LOT of water but my small frame (and bladder) can handle a gallon! Thanks for the suggestion to make the challenge your own.
LOVE this call out to get Libby and connect with the public library!!
Thank you!!! Best kept secret out there!!
I love love that you have your own version!! ❤ you’ve inspired me to do my own version as well. Walk 45 min and do Bible Recap every day❤
Kanoe Gibson here on TH-cam is excellent too. going through the Bible in 1 year
@@katybrooke0724 I appreciate you

Great video Rachel! I’m going to try it! ❤
Thank you. I feel like I’ve just received the permission I needed to go ahead and attempt this style of challenge-but on my own terms. I’ve never even THOUGHT about attempting a 75 Hard because I’m older and have a few physical limitations. But if I modify the steps to accommodate those needs, then I COULD do this! I’m feeling motivated!
That’s exactly how I felt!!!! You definitely can and I KNOW you will find the journey is so rewarding!
Yess!!!! I did my first 75 Hard last year, and it absolutely changed me too! I'm doing it every year now - I do mine mid March to late May (finishing right before Memorial Day weekend), but after watching this video, it's making me want to start it sooner! I'm craving the structure, the peace, and the conviction it gives me. Your tips were spot on! One tip that I would add....it's worth buying the 75 Hard app. I rarely pay for apps, but at $5 or $6 it was soo worth having. It helped me so much to keep track of the daily tasks, and what day I was on. And that dang progress picture was nearly my downfall on more than one occasion! This upcoming round I'm planning to take it when I'm getting dressed to workout in the morning. Waiting to do it at the end of the day is not a good plan for me! Thanks for the video, it was a great one!
Oh thank you, Adrienne! I had no idea there was an app! Taking your advice and downloading tonight!!!
@adriennewright1521 any chance the app could be customized?
I agree. I got the app from the start, two & a half years ago. I can’t imagine doing 75Hard without the official app. (I don’t usually pay for apps, either.) I like that it keeps the dates & pics of all the times I’ve done it.
Today is Day 64 for me. :)
@@amymarlene8The official app cannot be modified. 75Hard is meant to be done as designed without compromise or exceptions. Anything else is not considered “75Hard”.
You are so inspiring! Thank you for making videos for us!
Thank you, Jill! Appreciate you watching and your kind comment 🥰
Best hard 75 video ever!! Appreciate you sharing!!
Thank you for your insight on 75. I appreciate the many things you suggested. Thank you.
Rachel, you really spoke to me when you mentioned building trust and confidence in yourself. Thanks for sharing!!!! 💕
Makes my heart happy to read your comment. Thank you, truly.
I already do all of these things except take a progress photos. Let’s goooooo! 🥳😂
You get AFTER IT! Bravo!
This was inspiring ♥
Love this, Rachel! You have me so excited for my own 75 hard journey 🥰
Would love to hear about your experience 👀
I love this challenge, I will definitely be trying this soft version. I also subscribed & just watched so many of your great videos thank you for sharing I feel like I can relate to so much of your content, favorite new creator 🦋
So nice to read your lovely comment. It keeps me going. That is my intention (to be real, relatable and helpful) and makes my day to know we connect.
"Self-discipline is a form of self-love." -Heidi Priebe (another fantastic TH-camr)
Btw, I'm new to your channel. I like your content. I think I'll stick around. 😉💛
You're always an inspiration! As a lifelong reader and writer, I'd love a video of the top ten books that have influenced your life. Congratulations on the growth of your channel - not surprised a bit. :)
That’s such a great video topic idea! Thank you as always, Debbie. Your kind words and encouragement have helped me so much along the way!
Interesting concept and hadn’t heard about the challenge. Love Libby, get all my books from there. Honestly most of the “challenge” items I already do, and I’m learning to do the opposite: give myself grace. I don’t need to push myself more or be more disciplined. I need to stop feeling bad about being human and missing a workout or eating what I want once in a while. Life’s short! I hope you find good things from the challenge though!
I know exactly what you mean. Grace can be just as powerful as discipline!
This is so interesting. I am called to make this my own. Thanks for all of your tips and the app suggestion. Gotta find a buddy!
There is an app called 75 soft that allows for customization! Great video Rachel!
Thank you for this 💜
You have motivated me to try this I’m like a cat chasing shiny objects. I don’t seem to finish anything in my personal life I feel like. I’m wondering if this kind of structure would help me out of the funk of a three-year autoimmune disorder as well…yay Rachel!🔥🔥🔥
Love this! I have been looking for a good challenge and usually it is around fitness, but love the well rounded approach even more! I just stumbled upon your channel and the first video i watched was about low impact workouts/walking and how it really does make a difference and it resonated with me so much! I too was doing super hardcore workouts and it was really messing with my hormones. So glad I am finally learning to listen to my body and do what is right for me. Your advice is refreshing and i am so grateful for finding you and learning about this challenge ❤
So great to read your comment! I’m in my last week of the challenge and would have not made it through without a buddy!!! It’s been so enlightening to go through this and I can’t recommend it enough!
@@RundownwithRachel 💕
You have a gorgeous kitchen!
i would love to see a video about your experience with reading more!
Thank you for the motivation ! Excellent video 🥰
Ok. I really wish I’d jumped on this with you. If you’re still doing the no alcohol we definitely want to take advantage of that!!! ❤😊 Totally agree with your comment on drinking. You do not have to have a drinking problem to make it hard. It to drink. Socially it’s such a huge part of our lives that even someone who has one glass of wine a week could have trouble sticking to this.
It’s never too late!!! I think you’ll enjoy it just as much as I am! Looking forward to our next catch up!
Seeing you siting on the ground somehow gave me peace 😂😂.
I enjoy this video
Love your comment so much. When I’ve filmed sitting in a chair, I think I come across so rigid - whereas the floor feels more real - ya know?
I started 75 hard last August...made it 2 months, then got sick, so I was in bed for 10 days, but I just continued with it afterwards. I lost 29 lbs and never felt better. It inspired me to do a No Spend January #nailedit
My 75 days ended on my birthday (Nov 24th). I allowed myself to slide over the holidays and now Im going right back because I crave the discipline (never thought I'd say *That). The hardest part for me was getting all the water in. The next time, I'll do 1/2 gallon. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Craving the discipline! I think that’s what I’m finding too!
I just watched Chalene Johnson latest video called Cator Oil Miracle Or Fad? Within the first 5 mins she showed clips of you from your video called The Miracles Of Castor Oil when you were showing castor oil packing. If your a fan of Chalene check it out and know that she watched your castor oil video too.
I saw that!!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know!
Loving your pink sweater in the video. Do you have a link?
Thank you! It’s Free People and I actually found it from a consignment shop! So sadly no link! But Free People always seems to have great “off the shoulder”options!
You're at the point where you're talking about books 📚 to read and I'm going to challenge myself to READ THE BIBLE it's considered nonfiction, by most people.🎉❤
With the times as tough as they are the Bible could add a dimension of Hope.
John 17:3🥰
That’s a great challenge! The ultimate self help book!!!
I am currently reading the Bible in the 365 day format to help me read it cover, to cover, verse by verse. I am in awe of the Lord each day. Praise Jesus!
All the best!
This is a fantastic idea! Thank you for reminding me to get back to my Bible! ❤
Love this idea ❤
What do you do when life happens? A birthday celebration of a family member or you get sick? I'm considering doing the 75 hard but those sceneries in particular came to my mind.
Completely understand that. I’m a big fan of creating your own rules. Plenty of people will pause for a milestone and resume afterwards. Nothing wrong with that! My accountability buddy got sick and didn’t work out - we decided that doesn’t count! 😮💨
@@RundownwithRachel thanks for your answer 🙂.
I did the 75 Hard last year, original rules, and completed it.
However, the stipulation re: audiobooks not counting is utter nonsense. Reading is reading. The BookTube community is so sick of this "debate."
I used a clipboard with spaces for each of the daily prompts and checked that off as the day went on.
(Also, yes, I read physical books for the challenge, but was also reading my audiobooks on the side.)
Love this! Sounds like an amazing experience on so many levels. But sincere question- what’s the thought process behind the daily progress photos? Seems like it would be just as effective of not more to just do one at the beginning and one at the end? What do you think?
Im so glad you asked because that is exactly what I thought out the gate. “Is a daily progress photo really necessary?” Although I should find out the REAL reasoning behind it - so far I’ve realized for myself that sometimes the easy things can feel just as challenging as the not so easy things and if anything the easy things are even easier to neglect. So it’s helped me build awareness with that AND I’ll also be curious to see in looking back across the 75 progress photos, what the actual progress looks like, and what the ups and downs amount to over time. Change is never linear - at least that’s what I’m anticipating!
I definitely hear you on the easy things to do are easy NOT to do - I think that was a Jim Rohn quote? And yes, it will most likely very cool to see how progress actually unfolds - in a very NOT linear way! Here's an added tip I've done in leau of daily body progress pics - I've put myself through a style challenge where I take a pic of my outfits every day for a little while. It's the same idea on easy things being easy NOT to do. But it also helps me feel great about myself every day knowing I've styled myself in a way that I love. But of course, that's just if style is interesting and important to you (I suspect it is) :)@@RundownwithRachel
@@daniellaastor love that you shared your doing that as that is something I need to work on - putting myself together daily! It’s 1:30PM and I still haven’t put myself together!
HA! I totally get that! If you work from home things can get a little too comfy, shall we say? I find that re-evaluating my personal style has helped me feel great about the body I'm in and also consider how style helps me accomplish all that i want in the world. It's different for everybody but it definitely helped me to get a "data set" of what I looked like on a daily basis. @@RundownwithRachel
Good video 🩷
Any advice for finding an accountability partner when you don't really have any like-minded or reliable people in your life who can be that for you?
I've only ever had a proper accountability partner when I've paid to be part of a programme or had a coach, and boy was it powerful! I went so much further!! I really miss it!
This is such a great question!!! I wonder if there are Facebook groups you could join and partner up!
@@RundownwithRachel That's a great suggestion. I'll look into it! Thanks for replying ☺️
@@mairead354 of course! Keep us posted! 👀
@@RundownwithRachel 🤗
if your not following the full 75hard challenge rules, it is not 75hard, just title the video that ... its cool if you do a soft version, if thats what you CAN do, so you can still work on your goals!-- get a handle on it and then try the 75hard. ... then if you want challenge self and do the 75hard life style for a year.
Totally see what you are saying. And that’s been my thinking too - get a handle then do the real thing.
Well, what is “hard” for one person isn’t necessarily “hard” for another. I love the concept of making it your own and tackling those things we all need to address in ourselves.
@@iammisskrissThing is… if you “make it your own”, call it your own thing. You shouldn’t copy someone’s registered trademark & put it on something else, ya know?
1:34 I’m so weak -I’m def out now lol
You can see why I modified it 😅
I fucking ❤ you, girl.
And what do you do once the challenge is over?
75Hard is a program, not a challenge. It’s the first step, a bootcamp if you will, for the whole Live Hard program that is a year long. The creator does it every year, I believe.
While I want to do 75 hard, I know that I would never finish it. I will never go 2 weeks without a migraine, let alone 75 days. And those days, a single workout, let alone two, is not going to happen.
Vivi. I’m sorry you deal with that. Migraines are debilitating!!! I hope you can find some type of relief!
Thanks & I will send You photos& Progress reports Aj+Dj Martinez

I'm just about 5 minutes in watching you sit on your floor and discuss this 75 day challenge and I'm thinking I'm going to do this.
I only have one dilemma and maybe you could advise me what you think. I'm going to Hawaii on the 26th of this month febuary, to go and be a part of my son getting MARRIED on the beach.
His fiance is the one who chose Hawaii 🫣 so pretty expensive for everyone to be there, but they're only having 30 people on the beach and the rest of the friends and family will be coming to Phoenix Arizona March 23rd for the RECEPTION. So I'm going to go to both places. I live in Northern California up close to the Oregon border on the OCEAN 🌊🦤🦭🐬🐳
THIS COULD WASTE OUT TWO WHOLE MONTHS BEFORE BEING ABLE TO START.😮🥴🤔
Let's face it, life happens, should I just go ahead and start it anyway ❓is it something I can do while traveling? I know for the rest of this month after I do my two more days of vegetables prep diet, i'll start water fasting for the rest of the time before I fly to Hawaii.😅🎉❤
Can fasting be considered a diet?
I'm actually very good at sticking to healthy eating because I love whole food 🥝🥑🍅🍓🍉🫘🍳🧄🧅🌽🫛
I think the biggest challenge would be ❓❓❓🤔 What do you think Racheal any advice ❓
What an exciting trip!!!!! You know what I think??? I think you can make your own rules! Why not begin 75 Hard until your trip and resume it after? You get to make up your own rules!
WHAT a great idea, thank you Rachel 💡 WHEN I get back March 5th I can resume.
I don't think I'll find it hard to do cuz I don't drink alcohol. I already do Michael Thurmond stretch band exercises every other day.
So I'll just have to incorporate outside exercises and the reading 📚 I want to do anyway,.. so I think it's going to be a challenge of course, BUT I think I can do it!!
You should encourage your subscribers to check in once or twice a week to give an update on how they're doing, that might even up their challenge success 🎉❤
@@tamitatangoto5134 Great ideas! you may be surprised to find you actually WANT to do 75 Hard during your trip!
