What Is Gymshark66?

Gymshark66 is a 66-day habit-building challenge designed to help our community create daily habits that last a lifetime. Whether you’re focused on training, mindset, or overall well-being, Gymshark66 is about showing up, one day at a time, tracking your progress directly in the Gymshark Training App.

Your habits can be anything from...

  • 1 hour at the gym

  • 1 extra glass of water

  • 10 minutes of meditation

  • 10 pages of a book

You choose what works for you – and tick them off every day in the app. Simple as that. Before you know it, those small daily habits can add up to big life changes.

🎨 Your Gymshark66 colour profile will be shaped by the path you choose and the habits you commit to.


How Do I Sign Up?

From 1st January 2026, you’ll be able to join Gymshark66 via the Gymshark Training App.

To sign up:

  1. Download or update the Gymshark Training App to the latest version from the App Store (IOS only)

  2. Head to the #Gymshark66 Spotlight in the app on January 1st

  3. Click ‘Join Gymshark66’

  4. Pick three daily habits to complete for 66 days


I have an Android device. How do I take part?

At the moment, the app isn’t available to download from the Google Play Store. If you already have the app installed, you can continue to take part as normal. However, please be aware that you may experience bugs as the app is no longer receiving updates.

If you don’t currently have the app, don’t worry – you can still get involved. We encourage you to track your progress yourself so you can fully take part in the challenge.

You can also join in through our Become a Gymshark Athlete Competition across our social channels. This is another great way to get involved with the community and show us what you’ve got.

You’ll find more details further down in this article, or you can head over to our blog for the full rundown.


Choosing Your 3 Habits

You’ll choose three daily habits from the following categories:

  • Training

  • Health

  • Mindset

Once selected, your habits must be completed and ticked off every day for 66 days via the app.

⚠️ Important:
Habits can’t be edited once chosen. If you change your mind, you’ll need to end your current challenge and start a new one (this can’t be backdated).


What If I Miss a Day?

Don’t stress – we’re all human.

If you miss a day:

  • Simply pick up where you left off

  • Keep moving forward

  • Focus on consistency, not perfection

💬 100% today, 1% better tomorrow.

You can also go back and tick off previous days if you forgot to log your habits.


Athlete66: Follow Along With Gymshark Athletes

Another way to get involved is through Athlete66.

💪 Athlete66 is a series of pre-populated plans where you can:

  • Follow a workout plan

  • Complete daily habits

  • Train alongside your favourite Gymshark Athletes

All plans are available within the Gymshark Training App.


Rewards for Showing Up 🤑

By completing your daily habits, you’ll unlock in-app rewards along the way, including:

  • Discount codes

  • Free product

  • And more 👀

Just another reason to keep showing up.
