Crushing the 75 Hard Challenge: The Ultimate Guide & Supplement Stack Category: Fitness & Mindset

Are You Ready to Level Up?

If you’ve been scrolling through social media lately, you’ve likely seen the hashtag #75Hard. It’s not just a fitness challenge; it’s a "mental toughness program" designed to completely rewire how you approach discipline, grit, and self-belief.

At Vitasonic Labs, we believe in fueling your ambition. Whether you are an elite athlete or just starting your journey, 75 Hard is the perfect crucible to test your limits. But be warned: it is not for the faint of heart. It requires zero compromise.

Here is everything you need to know to survive and thrive—and the tools to help you get there.


The 5 Non-Negotiable Rules

The program is simple, but it isn't easy. For 75 consecutive days, you must complete the following five tasks. If you miss one task, you start over at Day 1.

  1. Follow a Diet: Choose any nutrition plan (Keto, Paleo, Macros, etc.) and stick to it perfectly. No alcohol and no cheat meals.

  2. Two 45-Minute Workouts: You must perform two separate workouts per day. One of them must be outdoors, regardless of the rain, snow, or heat.

  3. Drink 1 Gallon of Water: Plain water. No additives.

  4. Read 10 Pages: Non-fiction, personal development, or educational material only. Audiobooks don’t count.

  5. Take a Progress Photo: Every single day.


Fueling the Fire: The Vitasonic Supplement Stack

Surviving 75 days of two-a-day workouts requires more than just willpower; it requires physical recovery. If your body breaks down, your mind will follow. Here is how our premium supplements can aid your journey:

1. Recovery is King: BCAA Post Workout Powder

When you are training twice a day, delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is your biggest enemy. You cannot afford to be too sore to move on Day 12.

  • The Fix: Vitasonic Labs BCAA Post Workout Powder (Honeydew/Watermelon)

  • Why: Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) help reduce muscle breakdown and speed up recovery. sipping on this during or after your outdoor cardio session will help you bounce back faster for your evening lift. Plus, the Honeydew/Watermelon flavor is a refreshing reward after chugging plain water all day.

2. Power Through the Plateau: Creatine Monohydrate

Around Day 30, the novelty wears off and fatigue sets in. This is where physical strength needs a reinforcement.

  • The Fix: Vitasonic Labs Creatine Monohydrate

  • Why: Creatine is one of the most researched supplements for improving strength, power output, and muscle mass. It helps replenish your body’s ATP stores (energy), giving you that extra push to finish your second 45-minute workout with the same intensity as your first.

3. Hitting Your Macros: Whey Protein

Note: Check our shop for protein availability to meet your diet goals.

  • The Fix: Vitasonic Labs Whey Protein

  • Why: Rule #1 requires a strict diet. For many, hitting a high protein goal without going over calories is tough. A clean whey protein isolate is the cheat code to hitting your nutrition targets without "cheating" on your diet.
