How to Run the 75 Soft Challenge in ClickUp

The 75 Soft Challenge is a flexible wellness reset you can plan, track, and complete using ClickUp to keep every task, habit, and reflection organized in one workspace.

Instead of juggling notes, apps, and reminders, you can build a single system to manage hydration, workouts, diet rules, reading, and progress photos for the entire 75 days.

This step-by-step guide shows you how to recreate the structure of the original 75 Soft framework and manage it digitally with tasks, custom fields, and views.

What the 75 Soft Challenge Includes

The 75 Soft Challenge keeps the spirit of the 75 Hard program but in a more sustainable form. The core daily rules usually include:

• Drink three liters of water
• Complete one 45-minute workout
• Follow a healthy diet that fits your goals
• Read 10 pages of a non-fiction book
• Take a daily progress photo or note

The goal is to stay consistent for 75 consecutive days while building realistic habits you can maintain long-term.

Why Use ClickUp for the 75 Soft Challenge

Using a dedicated system makes it easier to stay consistent. ClickUp lets you turn the 75 Soft Challenge into a mini project with repeatable tasks and easy daily check-ins.

With one place for everything, you can:

• Map out all 75 days with clear due dates
• Track habits with checklists and custom fields
• Switch between List, Calendar, and Board views
• Capture reflections and notes without extra apps

This approach reduces friction so you spend more energy doing the work instead of managing it.

Step 1: Create a 75 Soft Space in ClickUp

Start by creating a focused area for your challenge.

1. Create a new Space and name it something like “75 Soft Challenge”.

2. Within the Space, add a Folder for “Daily Tasks”.

3. Create a List called “75 Soft Day Tracker”.

This structure keeps your challenge separate from other work and personal lists.

Step 2: Build Your Daily 75 Soft Task Template in ClickUp

Next, create a single reusable daily task template that reflects the challenge rules.

1. Add a new task named “Day 1 – 75 Soft”.

2. Inside the task description, list your daily rules:

   • 3 liters of water
   • 45-minute workout
   • Healthy meals (no cheat items you want to avoid)
   • 10 pages of reading
   • Daily progress photo or reflection

3. Turn each rule into a checklist item so you can quickly tick off completion.

Now save this task as a template in ClickUp so you can reuse it for every day of the challenge.

Step 3: Add Custom Fields in ClickUp for Detailed Tracking

To capture more detail than a simple checklist, add custom fields to your List.

1. Open the “75 Soft Day Tracker” List settings.

2. Add custom fields such as:

   • Water Intake (Number, liters)
   • Workout Type (Dropdown: strength, cardio, mobility, mixed)
   • Workout Duration (Number, minutes)
   • Reading Pages (Number)
   • Mood (Dropdown or emoji-based scale)

3. Attach these fields to your daily template so every new day includes consistent metrics.

These fields make it easy to scan your progress and identify patterns across all 75 days.

Step 4: Duplicate 75 Days of Tasks in ClickUp

Once your daily template is ready, you can build out the full challenge timeline in ClickUp.

1. From the template, create tasks for all 75 days (Day 1 to Day 75).

2. Set each task’s due date to match the exact calendar day of your challenge.

3. Use bulk actions to shift dates if you decide to change your start date.

This gives you a complete roadmap with one task per day so you always know what is due.

Step 5: Design Helpful Views in ClickUp

Different views help you see your 75 Soft progress from multiple angles.

ClickUp List View for Daily Completion

Use List view to see each day’s status and custom fields in a clean table.

• Check daily completion at a glance
• Sort by due date to see upcoming days
• Filter for “Incomplete” tasks if you get behind

ClickUp Calendar View for Scheduling

Switch to Calendar view to visualize your challenge over the full 75 days.

• Confirm that every day has a task scheduled
• Plan around busy weeks or travel
• Drag and drop tasks if you need to adjust start or end dates

ClickUp Board View for Habit Streaks

Create a Board view with columns such as “Not Started”, “In Progress”, and “Completed”.

• Move each day’s task across the board as you work
• Watch your “Completed” column grow over time
• Use this visual feedback to stay motivated

Step 6: Add Reflections and Photos in ClickUp

Tracking how you feel is just as important as checking boxes.

1. Open each day’s task and use the comments section for short reflections.

2. Attach progress photos directly to the task so you can scroll back later.

3. Use a custom field or tag for milestones such as “First full week” or “Halfway mark”.

By the end of the 75 Soft Challenge, you will have a detailed journal of your habits and progress.

Step 7: Review Your 75 Soft Results with ClickUp

After day 75, spend time reviewing how the challenge went.

1. Filter for completed tasks to confirm how many days you finished.

2. Scan your custom fields to see averages such as water intake or workout duration.

3. Read your notes and look through photos to understand what worked best.

Use these insights to design a lighter maintenance routine and keep using ClickUp to track ongoing habits.

Use a Ready-Made 75 Soft Template in ClickUp

If you prefer to start from a pre-built system instead of creating everything from scratch, you can reference the original challenge layout and adapt it to your own workspace. The breakdown of rules, habit ideas, and routine suggestions in the official guide at this 75 Soft Challenge article can be mirrored in your tasks, lists, and views.

Pairing a structured guide with flexible tools lets you personalize your wellness journey without losing the proven framework.

Next Steps: Expand Your System Beyond the 75 Days

Once you have a working habit tracker, you can reuse the same setup for future challenges or long-term health goals.

• Clone your 75 Soft List and adjust it for a 30-day or 90-day challenge
• Create separate Lists for nutrition, sleep, or strength progress
• Integrate goals and dashboards to track long-term trends
