ONE YEAR
A 365-day challenge, one small day at a time.
A year-long challenge is less about intensity and more about a habit small enough to survive holidays, sick days and busy weeks. Here is how to set one up so it lasts.
Choose smaller than you think
Ten squats, five minutes of stretching, one page read, a short walk. The version you can do on your worst day of the year is the right size. You can always do more.
Plan rest days on purpose
Every day for 365 days is 365 sessions. Every other day is 183. In ProofDays you can pick a rhythm from every day to every 7 days, and planned rest days never break the streak.
Expect missed days
Over a year something will go wrong. Each challenge has a Streak Shield that covers one missed day, and with Plus it renews every week. The streak is there to help you, not to scold you.
Make the year visible
Take a before photo on day one, add optional daily photos and notes, and at the end you get a before-and-after proof card and a short reveal video.
Track it in ProofDays
Set it up as Anything small, every day or every 2–7 days, 365 days.
- Set the target once. Reps, minutes, or simply done. Pick the length (3 to 365 days) and how often: every day, or every 2 to 7 days with rest days that never break your streak.
- Stamp the day. One tap when you are done. Log extra reps whenever you do them; the total counts them all. A reminder at the time you choose, and a gentle nudge at 8 pm if you haven’t stamped yet.
- Miss one, keep going. Each challenge has a Streak Shield that covers one missed day automatically.
- Keep the proof. Take an optional before photo. At the end you get a before-and-after proof card and a short reveal video. Both are free to share.
- Bring someone. Invite a partner or a small group to the same challenge and cheer each other on.
