LIVEHARDUpdated 10 months ago
I will start this by saying that if you have to ask, the answer is always choose the harder option.
However ... if you still have specific questions, here are the most frequently asked questions that we receive about LIVEHARD:
Q: Which podcast does Andy talk about LiveHard?
Tap Here to listen to Episode 80 of my podcast, Real AF with Andy Frisella.
Q: Do I have to start Phase 1 immediately after 75 HARD?
No, you are not required to start Phase 1 right after 75 HARD.
Q: How many additional Power List tasks are required in Phase 1?
Since you're already doing 5 tasks with the 75 HARD requirements, you would have to choose 3 more totaling 8.
Q: Why can't I start Phase 2 of the LiveHard program right away?
There is a required minimum 30 day break between Phase 1 & Phase 2 to show you what it's like to be off of the program and get back on track.
Q: When can I begin Phase 3 of the LiveHard program?
Phase 3 is required to be done in the last 30 days leading up to the 1 year mark from when you began 75 HARD. Ex: If I begin 75 HARD on January 31st, Phase 3 will start on January 1st of the following year.
Q: Is visualization a required task in Phase 3?
Visualization is not required during Phase 3.
Q: If I fail during a Phase, do I restart from day 1 of that Phase, or do I restart on day 1 of 75 HARD?
If you fail within Phase 1 or Phase 2, you can restart from day 1 of that same Phase. That said, failing during Phase 3 means that you have to restart from day 1 of 75 HARD since it's done in the last 30 days of the LiveHard year.
Q: What are critical tasks?
The Power List tasks are supposed to be tasks that will help move you forward in your life that you don't already do on a daily basis.
For example, this is not like a chore list, like do the dishes ... or mow the lawn.
This would be like make an extra 5 sales calls, meal prep for tomorrow, watch an informative youtube video, etc.
Q: What are all of the requirements of the full LiveHard year?
75 HARD:

- Follow a diet, with ZERO cheat meals and ZERO alcohol.

Phase 3 -30 days

Same requirements as Phase 1
-Talk to a stranger
-1 random act of kindness
Talk to a stranger- Conversation must be done in person and more than just a greeting
Just a compliment does not count
Just a handshake does not count
Just a hello does not count
Just a head nod does not count
Interacting via social media does not count
Your goal should be at least learn something small about them
1 random act of kindness
R.A.O.K includes things like donating, volunteering, paying for a strangers meal, filling a trash bag during your outdoor workout, etc. Each random act of kindness must be journaled.
Use your best judgment on what constitutes a R.A.O.K.
