No Junk Food
No junk food for the full 21 days. No takeaway, no chips, no biscuits, no sugary snacks, no processed meals, no fast food. If it comes in a packet with ingredients you can't pronounce, skip it. Eat real food — meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, legumes, whole grains. No calorie counting. No restriction. Just cut the junk and eat food that nourishes your body.
anytime
3
No Alcohol
No alcoholic drinks for the full 21 days. Zero exceptions. This resets your sleep, stabilises your energy, reduces inflammation, and gives your body a real chance to recover. You'll be amazed at how different you feel after three weeks without it.
anytime
4
10 Minutes of Mindfulness
Spend 10 minutes on your mental health every day. Meditate, journal, do breathwork, practise gratitude, or sit quietly with your thoughts. The format doesn't matter — what matters is that you give your mind the same attention you give your body. This is the habit most people skip and the one that makes the biggest difference.

Why This Works
Build unshakeable habits for mind and body with 21 days of daily movement, clean eating, no alcohol, and mindfulness. The January Challenge proved you can show up — now it's time to level up.
Challenge Overview
January was the reset. February is the rebuild.
Our first challenge saw 87% of participants complete all 14 days — proving that simple, focused habits work when you have the right system. This time we're going longer, adding a mental health habit, and making the whole thing more achievable based on real feedback from our January crew.
Four habits. Twenty-one days. Mind and body.

In just 21 days...
- Noticeably more energy from daily movement and clean eating
- Deeper, more restorative sleep without alcohol disrupting your cycles
- Reduced anxiety and improved emotional regulation from daily mindfulness
- Mental clarity and sharper focus throughout your day
- A genuine sense of calm that carries over into everything you do
- Improved digestion and reduced bloating from cutting junk food

- A foundation of habits strong enough to carry you through the rest of 2026
- Proof that you don't need motivation — you need a system
Why This Works
The February Challenge builds on everything we learned running the January Challenge — and everything our participants told us.
In January, we asked 16 people to complete four physical habits for 14 days. Fourteen of them finished. That's an 87% completion rate — while most fitness programmes are lucky to see 20%. But we also learned what to improve.
Two workouts a day was too much. "Whole foods only" was too vague. And 14 days was a great start — but 21 days is where habits really stick.
So we listened. We simplified the movement to one flexible daily session. We swapped "whole foods only" for "no junk food" — clearer, easier to follow, harder to fail on a technicality. We extended to 21 days because research consistently shows that's the sweet spot for building lasting habits. And we added a mindfulness habit — because your mind deserves the same attention as your body.
The result is a challenge that's more achievable, more balanced, and more likely to create habits that outlast the 21 days.
Why These Four Habits?
These aren't random. Each one was chosen because it delivers maximum impact with minimum complexity — and because together, they cover the foundations of physical and mental health.
Movement
The most important health habit you can build. Thirty minutes of intentional movement boosts your mood, builds strength, improves cardiovascular health, and floods your brain with endorphins. We made this flexible on purpose — gym, run, walk, swim, yoga, sport. Pick what you enjoy. Consistency matters more than intensity. Show up daily, move with purpose, and your body will thank you.
No Junk Food
Processed food is engineered to make you overeat. It spikes your blood sugar, crashes your energy, disrupts your gut, and clouds your thinking. Cutting junk food for 21 days isn't about restriction — it's about giving your body real fuel. Eat meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, nuts, eggs, whole grains. You'll feel the difference within days. Less bloating. More stable energy. Fewer cravings. Clearer skin.
No Alcohol
Alcohol destroys sleep quality, spikes inflammation, adds empty calories, tanks your energy, and impairs recovery. Most people don't realise how much it's holding them back until they stop. Three weeks without it resets your system completely. Expect better sleep from night one, more energy by the end of week one, and a completely different baseline by day 21. This was the most popular habit from our January Challenge — and the one participants said made the biggest difference.
Mindfulness
The habit most people ignore and the one that changes everything. Ten minutes of meditation, journaling, or breathwork reduces anxiety, improves focus, builds emotional resilience, and helps you respond to stress instead of reacting to it. It's also the glue that holds the other habits together — when your mind is clear, showing up for movement and nutrition becomes easier. You don't need an app or a course. Just 10 minutes, every day, with your thoughts.
Together, these four habits address the complete picture: movement, nutrition, recovery, and mental health. Master them for 21 days and you'll enter March as a fundamentally different person.
What You'll Achieve
A Physical and Mental Reset
Twenty-one days of daily movement, clean eating, no alcohol, and mindfulness will transform how you feel. Expect more energy, better sleep, less bloating, clearer skin, improved digestion, reduced anxiety, and sharper focus. Your body and mind are craving this reset — even if the first few days feel uncomfortable.
Real Habit Formation
Fourteen days builds momentum. Twenty-one days builds habits. By the end of this challenge, these four habits won't feel like effort — they'll feel like your routine. The morning walk becomes automatic. Reaching for real food becomes default. The evening mindfulness becomes something you look forward to. That's the shift from discipline to identity.
Proof That You Can Follow Through
Most people start things. Few people finish them. Completing a 21-day challenge with four daily habits is genuine evidence that you can commit to something and see it through. That confidence carries into everything — your career, your relationships, your next challenge. You'll stop wondering if you can do hard things. You'll know you can.
A Foundation for What's Next
This challenge isn't the end — it's the launchpad. After 21 days, you'll have a system that works, habits already in motion, and the confidence to tackle bigger goals. Extend the challenge. Add new habits. Set a fitness target. Start that project. The foundation makes everything else easier.
How to Get the Most From This Challenge
- Register early. Secure your spot and mentally commit before the start date.
- Move in the morning. Get your 30 minutes done before the day gets unpredictable. Afternoon and evening workouts are harder to protect.
- Prep your food on Day 1. Stock your fridge with real food. Remove the junk. If the healthy option is easiest, you'll choose it every time.
- Remove temptation. Get the alcohol and junk food out of your house. Don't rely on willpower when environment design works better.
- Schedule your mindfulness. Pick a time — morning or evening — and protect it. Treat it like an appointment with yourself.
- Tell someone. Share that you're doing the February Challenge. Accountability makes quitting harder. Even better — invite a friend to join you.
- Track it daily. Check off each habit on Routine Impact as you complete it. Watching your streak grow is more motivating than you'd expect.
- Don't aim for perfect. Aim for consistent. A bad day doesn't break a streak. A bad week does. If you slip, reset the next morning and keep going.
January vs February: What Changed
The February Challenge takes everything we learned from January and makes it better. It's longer — 21 days instead of 14 — but actually takes less time each day. We combined two separate workouts into one flexible 30-minute movement session, swapped "whole foods only" for the clearer "no junk food" guideline, kept the no alcohol habit that participants loved, and added 10 minutes of daily mindfulness to address the mental side of health. The result is a challenge that's more achievable, more balanced, and more likely to build habits that stick beyond the 21 days.
FAQ
Is this suitable for beginners? Absolutely. The habits are intentionally simple and flexible. If you can walk for 30 minutes, skip the chips, drink water instead of alcohol, and sit quietly for 10 minutes — you can do this challenge.
What counts as movement? Anything intentional that lasts 30 minutes. Gym, running, walking, swimming, cycling, yoga, Pilates, sport, bodyweight exercises at home. The only rule is that it's purposeful — a casual stroll to the fridge doesn't count.
What counts as junk food? Takeaway, fast food, chips, biscuits, lollies, chocolate bars, sugary drinks, ice cream, processed snacks, anything deep-fried. The simple test: if it comes in a packet with a long ingredient list and you know it's bad for you — skip it.
What counts as mindfulness? Meditation, journaling, breathwork, gratitude practice, or simply sitting in silence with your thoughts. No phone. No music. Just you and your mind for 10 minutes. Use an app if it helps, or just set a timer.
Do I need a gym membership? No. You can complete this entire challenge without a gym. Walk, run, swim, do yoga at home, follow a bodyweight workout on YouTube. The movement habit is deliberately flexible.
What if I miss a day? Don't let one bad day become a bad week. Reset the next morning and keep going. The goal is 21 days of consistency — not 21 days of perfection. Show up, do the work, move forward.
Is this really free? Yes. 100% free. No credit card. No hidden fees. No upsell. Just a challenge, a community, and a system to keep you accountable.
