What Is the 75 Soft Challenge? – Everyday Health

Jenna Willis, an International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA)certified personal trainer based out of Los Angeles, is a fan of the challenge. The 75 Soft challenge is an incredible approach to boosting fitness and well-being and is a sustainable approach to leading a healthy lifestyle, she says.

If someone follows the 75 Soft challenge for the full 75 days, they should expect to gain muscle tone and strength and, very likely, shed some pounds, she says. Of course, those results will depend on the workouts you choose for the training portion.

And compared with the 75 Hard program, theres a lower risk of injury if youre new or returning to exercise, Willis adds. And, it's a more approachable plan for those leading a busy lifestyle because there is lots of room for customization, she says.

The 75 Soft challenge supports nutritious food choices, a recovery workout, hydration, and reading, all on levels that are obtainable and not a huge life overhaul, she adds.

Possibly the only concern, according to Gardner, is that the exercise rule may be overwhelming for some people who arent used to working out daily. She adds, however, that the rules let the individual pick the workout of their choosing, so someone new or returning to exercise could tailor their routine to not be too intense and include enough variety.

To me this is important, because to perform the same exercise (running, for example) every day does risk overuse or stress injury, she says.

Orlando-based dietitian and ACSM-certified personal trainer Tara Collingwood, RDN, who is also a certified specialist in sports dietetics (CSSD), credits the plan for addressing both physical and emotional health in ways that are doable and sustainable. Nothing they are asking is unrealistic, says Collingwood, who specializes in working with clients on sustainable weight loss.
