75 Hard: Week 10 – The Next Round

When this posts, I will officially be 5 full days away from completing my first round of 75 Hard.

I’m still trying to digest the fact that I’m this close to completion if I am being honest. What’s even crazier is that I’m already super excited for round 2. I’ve even been trying to recruit other people in my life to do it along side of me, even showing them the 75 Soft version as a variant to ease them in.

Progress for Week 10:

No real struggles to speak of. I had a day earlier this week where it took me into the evening to finish my gallon of water, but that was more due to the fact I had an extremely busy day.

I’m stuck at 305 on my weight loss and while I had really hoped to drop below 300 before day 75, I’m not sure of the probability of that happening. However I am going to do a little more intense workouts over the next five days.

So what’s next?

I plan on posting a completion post Wednesday, October 29^th (Day 75), once I finish all my steps for the day. I already plan on powering through my water early in the day and getting both my workouts done before I get off work. It’ll include

Round 2

Saturday November 1^st, I’ll begin round 2 of 75 Hard, with a completion date of January 15, 2026. That morning I’ll post a blog that has my detailed plans for round two, including diet, exercise, and some personal goals I am setting for myself. Just like this round, I will post a weekly update, but these will post on Saturdays, instead of Fridays.

I understand the difficulties will be different this time as I’ll be working on mainting a diet and workout routine through not only the holidays, but the Midwest winter months. I’ll continue to have my current 75 Hard partner, Jessica, as she will be starting her round 3, as well as a couple people from work who will be attempting the 75 Soft Alternative.

I’ll also continue to have the support of my family at home, and all the people who have kept cheering me along as I post my updates. Everyone has been a major part in my driver to complete 75 Hard, as well as my desire to keep going.

This journey is almost over, and I am stoked about the next one. Talk to everyone on Wednesday!
