What to do after 75 Hard - PHASE 1 | Live Hard

[@urbexdrw8400]

Can`t wait to start! My 75 Hard journey is almost over and I feel great, I feel in control and I love it.

[@NickTShelton]

Ah yeah! That’s what’s up! Keep that momentum rolling and never look back. 💪🏼

[@kirkwalper]

Very helpful video. I finished 75 hard a week ago and starting phase 1 in 2 days. Much appreciated. 👍

[@NickTShelton]

Congrats on the finish Kirk! Keep that momentum rolling!

[@Ada_ToNieWypada]

I get goosebumps even thinking of a cold shower! ;) I'm not ready yet for 75 Hard, I'm slowly preparing myself mentally, I think I need this to prove to myself that I am capable of doing it. Thanks Nick! Great video, a pleasure to watch. Have a beautiful day!

[@NickTShelton]

Yes, they are sure intimidating, haha! You’re stronger than you think! If you stick with it for one day, you can stick with it for 75. One day at a time. Thanks for watching, Adriana! Have a great day!

[@Ada_ToNieWypada]

@@NickTShelton Thank you. That means a lot!

[@bliantfive]

Have you done it?

[@richardwheeldon332]

Great video!! After 18 days of completing 75 hard I decided to start P1. I was feeling old bad habits creeping back in. Thx for the video

[@NickTShelton]

Thanks Richard! That’s what it’s all about. Recognizing when those bad habits start sneaking their way in, and stop them before that take hold. Keep it up!

[@Tvon3]

Going to be starting Phase 1 soon. Needed this. Thank you for this!

[@NickTShelton]

@tvon3 💪🏼 you got this!

[@ngprovidence1275]

Clear and helpful. I’m doing 75 hard now. This is the first presentation I’ve heard re the other phases. Been doing the daily cold shower for years so that won’t be new. The 3 critical tasks is where the gold will be for me.

[@NickTShelton]

Love to hear it. Yeah, I agree. The critical tasks are a game changer in terms of productivity. You cut out the noise and just get it done, whatever it takes. One of my favorite parts of the program. Keep working hard.

[@BitsySkittlesPryss]

I appreciate your overview on visualization. I would love to see a full video on how to do it, as I've never really gotten the hang of it or understood the point of it. So many people recommend it that there must be something to it.

[@NickTShelton]

Thanks! Yes, visualization is a game changer to have in your arsenal. Here’s a few I have on visualization.

@@NickTShelton Thank you

[@lucyjparker_]

Loved your summary here. Im beginning Phase 1 tomorrow after finishing 75 hard challenge last month...thanks for the tips...the visualisation was really great! Also I will put in KZbin videos to do as tasks as you also did..great thinking!

[@NickTShelton]

Congrats on finishing 75 Hard! Good luck during Phase 1 and beyond. Keep working hard! Thanks for the feedback! 💪🏼

[@hollzk8548]

I just started phase one and I will say I enjoy the cold showers right after my workouts

[@kellybarrett8844]

You explained it the best so far. thank you!

[@NickTShelton]

Thanks so much, Kelly!

[@emilywknudson]

Nice video- something I’ve been thinking about - I started on Feb 1 finished 75 hard and immediately began phase 1 done with phase 1 now- if I start phase 2 in 30 days it will put me done with it before end of July - leaving me August September October November and December - 5 full months before I can start phase 3 to finish for the year- seems a bit stretched out .. any thoughts?

[@NickTShelton]

Personally, I would give yourself a break in between. Part of the challenge in 75 hard is to build the muscle of getting knocked off track and being able to show back up. It’s good practice to give yourself some time after 75 Hard and then pick back up again for Phase 1

[@DipoSatriaR]

Thanks @nick , great explanation. So between Phase 1 and Phase 2 there has to be a break of 30 days? Are you not allowed to do all the 75 days habbit in between? Would assume it would have become a habbit / lifestyle by then?

[@NickTShelton]

Good question, that is completely up to you. You can do the habits/requirements, but they don’t count toward your phase 2 Hope that helps!

[@rlord7053]

Your videos have been very helpful as I have been trying to get critical task ideas. I completed my 75 last Saturday and already miss it, so I think I'm going to hit phase 1 earlier than I planned. (Never thought I would be missing it to be honest lol)

[@NickTShelton]

I’m glad you are enjoying them! Haha, it’s an odd feeling when the program is over, right? Nothing wrong at all with being addicted to progress :) keep up the hard work!

[@timothystrom1105]

It is great to hear not only the feedback but also the looking forward with the 75Hard program. I will say, I’d be looking forward to getting back to the cold showers since you’ve explained the experience well! If you haven’t, I’d look into the training of Wim Hof, especially with cold showers, which made them a lot more tolerable and even more enjoyable. Thanks again for this!

[@NickTShelton]

Thanks Tim! Definitely going to look into that! I appreciate your support. 🙏🏼

[@RealJhill]

Can't even find the Live Hard program anywhere on the website. Is it still a thing?

[@NickTShelton]

Yeah, if you search “live hard” there are some blogs on it. Andy also has some podcasts referencing it.

[@melissafacey3973]

Thank u for posting this.

[@NickTShelton]

Thank YOU for watching :)

[@gainup]

Hi Nick! Great video, thank you! I finshed 75 HARD in October and thought, ok, I'm done with that. Well now that it's been a few months and I realize I need to continue. Back to many of my old habbits. The critical task thing has me stumped. Does each day have to be new tasks? I'd like to do a 30 day yoga series, would that count as one each day? Spending more quality time with my horse, groom, just hanging out (rather than always work work, go go). Could that be a daily task each day? Thanks for any input! Elise

[@NickTShelton]

Hey Elise, I appreciate that! Good question - it doesn't necessarily have to be new tasks, but when something becomes a habit, it's time to move it off the list. For example, if stretching for 10 min every day isn't a habit for you, add it on there. But, when you do it for 14-21 days or so and it's built in, add a different task. Totally, if mindfulness is something you're trying to build into your life, add tasks that allow for that. Things like, spend 20 min quality time with your horse, meditate/breathwork for 10 min, or anything that busts you out of the day-to-day grind of work, work, work. Hope that helps!

[@gainup]

@@NickTShelton Thanks NIck, that helps a ton! I kind of took a cold shower today to see what I'm in for, yikes!!! ;)

[@imcharmed4evr]

The only one I’d have trouble with is the 5 minute cold shower, not becuz it’s cold, but becuz there’s no way I can wash everything that fast, my hair is long and thick and alone takes 15-20 mins to shampoo and cream rinse it. Plus, we women also shave many parts of our body, to include: legs, armpits, and bikini line. I usually take a warm shower, followed up with a cool shower, can u start off with a warm shower, then do the cold shower at the end?

[@NickTShelton]

I can totally see how that would be tough on ladies with all of the extra stuff to accomplish in the shower haha. There is technically no standard on how you start the cold shower as long as you get a consecutive 5:00 cold shower. So, in my humble opinion, I'd say it's fair game.

[@romeohuntter2098]

Today is my day 1 and so far it’s good hopefully I don’t give up

[@NickTShelton]

One day at a time! You’ve proven that you can complete all tasks, now keep it up 💪🏼

[@romeohuntter2098]

@@NickTShelton thanks 😊 wasn’t expecting you to see this but your videos did motivate me and well informed me very will (: I just hope by the end of this I can learn to track what I eat

[@NickTShelton]

Of course! Thanks for the support! I appreciate ya. We all start somewhere. There are many different methods, so keep it simple. One of the best resources that helped me learn to track my food is a company called Precision Nutrition. They have a TON of articles on that cater to beginners as well as experts. They really focus on simplicity and sustainability in your eating habits. Hope that helps!

[@ashleybursch2804]

the choice is up to you if you give up or not

[@yaniregomez3861]

If you fail phase 1 do you start over with the original 75 hard ?

[@NickTShelton]

On Andy’s website, he says if you fail phase 1, restart phase 1.

[@SILKROADAandR]

It says in a lot of other places that it’s 8 critical task not 3 … Can you provide some clarification here?

[@sherononiekabennett2176]

Just finished phase 1 yesterday! 🤸🏾

[@NickTShelton]

That’s what’s up! Keep the momentum into phase ✌🏼

[@harshsoneji8588]

thanks, that was helpful

[@NickTShelton]

You’re welcome bud - thanks for watching

[@danirodriguez5424]

My husband has the same Stanley thermos😅It's massive

[@NickTShelton]

It’s gets the job done!

[@rayvaughan123]

For the 3 critical tasks, do you do the same tasks every day, or do you do a new set of 3 tasks each day?

[@NickTShelton]

Good question. It depends. Generally, it should be something different that constantly moves the needle forward in your life. If it is something that should be a habit, in other words, like going to the gym or drinking 1 gallon of water, those should already be in your daily routine, so don't treat those as a "task". But, maybe you're trying to implement a new aspect in that routine, like stretch for 10 minutes. Use that as a task so you don't forget to add it to your routine. Then, after a short time, it should already be baked in as a habit in the routine, so your task should be something else. Hope that helps.

[@JordaanW]

started phase 1 today, however it says 8 critical tasks for me?

[@NickTShelton]

5 tasks for 75 hard plus 3 additional See this link - it shows the main 5 tasks for 75 hard andyfrisella.com/blogs/articles/what-is-75-hard?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAC7HfYv4CKGjPYUPS4E8A_6xpNygF&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI2ZyJx56uiAMV_RGtBh3XuwOgEAAYASAAEgJi9PD_BwE

[@JordaanW]

@@NickTShelton Pheww! Was thinking 8 extra is too many haha! Lets get it brother

[@NickTShelton]

@@JordaanW Haha, I feel ya, man! It was confusing to me first, as well (and I've noticed the same response for a lot of other people). I think it's just phrased a little oddly in the program, but I did some deep diving and research on Andy's podcasts and other websites to figure it out. You should be good to go now! Stay hard!

[@JordaanW]

@@NickTShelton awesome stuff! Thank you brother. Day 1 going well. Need to remember to keep on top of this water 💧

[@itsreallyalvarez]

Aside from your 75 hard tasks? What do you mean by this brother. I started phase one yesterday and confused about these tasks, is 8 total or just 3?

[@itsreallyalvarez]

It says 8 critical on the 75 app, confused about this one

[@NickTShelton]

Hey bud, this is very confusing. I had to go back and listen to Andy’s podcast but it’s just 3. So, your day is all of the 75 hard requirements, phase 1 requirements, and then your tasks are just 3 additional things. For someone like a content creator, it would be something like: -write 2 blogs -edit 2 videos -post 3 stories to social media Hope that makes sense!

[@itsreallyalvarez]

@@NickTShelton thank you for clarifying that brother. I literally did 8 yesterday and wasn’t sure if I was doing the wrong thing but I figured it was just 3!

[@NickTShelton]

Oh man! Now the 3 are going to be a piece of cake, haha! Keep it up brother!

[@itsreallyalvarez]

@@NickTShelton thank you, you too!

[@G4flyer]

Isn’t it 8 critical tasks?

[@NickTShelton]

3 critical tasks in addition the 5 tasks you already have to do for a total of 8.

[@technation7769]

Nice

[@NickTShelton]

Thanks!

[@satria6489]

How you ensure you take a 5 minute shower 😅? What if it takes less time. I never measure my shower time 😂

[@NickTShelton]

Haha, I know, right?! I actually had to set the timer on my watch because my showers are quicker than 5:00.

[@missiris1234]

Wow! I thought there was one phase

[@NickTShelton]

It’s tough! 3 phases after 75 hard!
