75 hard': the viral fitness challenge is back but is it really the best way to spend January?

Andy Frisella, the creator of 75 Hard, emphasizes that this is more than a fitness challenge; he claims it is a transformative mental toughness programme designed to build resilience and discipline over 75 days.

NHS GP Sam Whiteman cautions that 75 Hard has not been clinically studied, noting that its effectiveness compared to more traditional exercise plans, like going to the gym three times a week, remains uncertain.

Frisella’s programme demands participants to adhere to strict guidelines including a healthy diet, two workouts a day, and reading non-fiction, raising questions about its practicality for those with busy lives.

While 75 Hard has gained millions of followers on social media, experts suggest that a more basic exercise regime may be more beneficial and practical for the average person.
