Two 45-Minute Workouts a Day for 75 Days: He Lost 15 Pounds Finishing 75 Hard
2 min read · RealCase summary
Cole DeBoer, known from 'Teen Mom 2,' said he wanted 'something more challenging' than his usual workouts, and started 75 Hard two days after his wife mentioned it, according to Hollywood Life.
The program's daily rules are strict: two 45-minute workouts, a gallon of water, 10 pages of nonfiction, a progress photo, a set diet with no cheat meals and no alcohol, for 75 days in a row — miss anything and you restart at day one. DeBoer kept his food plain: eggs, Ezekiel bread, avocados and meat with no sauces. Some of his workouts were deliberately 'goofy,' like throwing cinder blocks.
He finished the 75 days 15 pounds lighter, with noticeably more muscle in his before-and-after photos. He said he felt more energized playing with his kids and that not wanting his family to watch him fail kept him going.
