Frequently Asked Questions

Gara is a free all-in-one fitness and habit tracker. Log workouts, build daily habits, track water and nutrition, monitor body stats, and watch your progress over time. You can also choose from 15 structured programs — challenges, running races, OCR events, and strength camps — or just train at your own pace with no program at all.

No. Gara works whether you're doing 75 Hard, training for a marathon, lifting weights, or just building better daily habits. Choose a structured program when you're ready — or don't. The tracking tools work either way.

75 Hard requires two 45-minute workouts daily (one outdoor), a strict diet with no alcohol or cheat meals, 4L of water, 10 pages of reading, and a progress photo. 75 Soft is a more flexible version: one workout, no weekday alcohol, and relaxed diet rules.
