Paddy McGuinness Defends 75-Day '75 Hard' Transformation After AI Claims

He credits the strict regimen with mental benefits, promising a full time-lapse to show his progress.

Overview

  • The 52-year-old completed the 75 Hard programme this month and shared before-and-after photos with his 2.2 million Instagram followers.
  • Speaking on BBC Radio 2’s Scott Mills show, he dismissed accusations that the images were AI-edited, joking that “the AI is when you’re painting on abs.”
  • He said he will publish a 75-day picture time-lapse next week to document the change.
  • He described early overexertion that left him aching and urged anyone trying the plan not to do too much at the start.
  • The challenge, devised by Andy Frisella, requires two 45-minute workouts daily including one outdoors, a strict diet with no alcohol or cheat days, high water intake, daily reading, and progress photos, and experts caution it may not suit everyone.
