ALTRA80

Read full description

ALTRA 80 is an 80 day discipline challenge for people who are tired of quitting on themselves. Most challenges break you on day 19. ALTRA is built for the other side of that wall. You set your daily standard, you show up, and the app holds the line with you one day at a time, for 80 days. THE DAILY STANDARD Core tasks lock in your day. Bonus tasks are pure upside, they never break a streak. Tracked habits like water are just for you to watch, they never count against you. Choose the habits that define your standard, training, water, reading, diet, no alcohol, whatever your version of discipline looks like, stack the ones that happen together under one cue, and lock the day in. THREE LIVES, NOT ZERO This isn't all or nothing. You start with three lives. Slip up on a core task and you lose one and the finish line moves further away. Run out and you start over. It's forgiving enough to be human, strict enough to mean something. STREAK SHIELDS Hit a streak milestone or clear your weekly bonus goal and you'll earn a Streak Shield, protection you can spend to save a missed day without losing your streak or a life. YOUR GOLDEN RULE Pick one non negotiable habit you commit to keeping during the challenge and long after it. Breaking it costs you. This is the line you don't cross. THE MANIFEST Write down why you're really here. Three goals, short, mid, and long term. Your vision lives in the app, in front of you, every day you show up. EARN IT BACK Lose a life and you get a shot at redemption, draw a Wildcard challenge and complete it within 24 hours to win the life back. Discipline, with a second chance. THE COST OF STAYING THE SAME Before you start, be honest about what your habits actually cost. Drinking, smoking or vaping, screen time, takeaway, coffee. ALTRA works out what that adds up to in real money and real hours across 80 days. Then every single day you lock in, a tracker on your dashboard shows exactly how much of both you're getting back. TAKE A MOMENT Feel an urge to slip? Ride it out, or drop into a guided meditation or mindfulness timer, built right into your day. PROOF YOU'RE CHANGING • Daily streaks and a live day counter • Progress photos, one a day, so Day 80 shows the whole transformation • Wins to collect as you hit new ground, hold and reveal each one the moment you earn it • A Weekly Debrief that reads your data and tells you exactly where you're winning and where you're slipping • Apple Health integration for steps, heart rate, sleep, and energy, right on your dashboard • Weight tracking with a trend chart, for anyone whose standard includes the scale • Full stats, completion rate, best streak, and where you rank against the people who quit LIFE AFTER DAY 80 The challenge ends. The standard doesn't. Roll into a new challenge or enter Lifelong Mode and keep the daily standard going with no finish line. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No login. No tracking. Everything you log stays on your device. ALTRA PRO ALTRA is a full membership, there's no limited free version. Pro unlocks the entire 80 day challenge and every feature: your daily standard, lives and streaks, the Manifest, Wins, all stats, the Reclaimed tracker, progress photos, the Weekly Debrief, and life after Day 80. • Monthly and Yearly plans (the Yearly plan is the best value) • Both start with a 7 day free trial.
