What is the 75 Hard challenge?
75 Hard is a 75-day mental toughness program created by Andy Frisella. Each day you complete a set checklist: follow a structured diet with no alcohol or cheat meals, do two 45-minute workouts with one of them outdoors, drink a gallon of water, read 10 pages of a non-fiction book, and take a progress photo. Miss any task and the program has you start over at day one.
Hekta does not run the program or set its rules. It is an independent habit tracker you can use to log your daily 75 Hard tasks and keep the streak with a small group. Hekta is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or the official app of 75 Hard or Andy Frisella.
How to track 75 Hard in Hekta
Set up a challenge for the tasks you want to follow, log each day, and invite the friends doing it with you. Because 75 Hard resets if you miss a task, a shared streak and a visible day count help everyone stay honest about finishing the full checklist.
You can track the whole checklist as one daily yes or no, or run separate challenges for the workouts, the water, and the reading if you want each one visible. The group sees who has logged today and can send a quick cheer to keep momentum through the hard middle weeks.

Why a group makes 75 Hard easier
75 Hard is demanding, and the restart rule makes consistency everything. On your own it is easy to quietly let a task slide near the end of a long day. With a group, every check-in is visible, a missed day is obvious, and a cheer from someone on the same journey helps you get the second workout in when motivation is low.
A shared streak gives the whole group one run to protect, which turns 75 days of solo discipline into something you carry together.
