Today’s recipe
Today we’re sharing a recipe for stir-fried noodles with soy and vegetables — a delicious way to rebalance your diet without sacrificing flavour.
Ingredients (serves 2):
1 packet of Chinese noodles
1 small can of bean sprouts (or a handful of fresh sprouts)
2 carrots
2 onions
2 handfuls of black mushrooms
Soy sauce
Olive oil
Method
Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions, in a wok or a large saucepan.
Soak the black mushrooms in a large bowl of hot water.
Finely slice the vegetables. The thinner they are, the faster they’ll cook.
In a frying pan, sauté the onions in olive oil.
Add the carrots.
Once the carrots are tender, add the sliced mushrooms and bean sprouts.
Stir-fry for 5 minutes.
Add a tablespoon of soy sauce and a teaspoon of sugar, then stir-fry for a further 2 minutes.
Add the noodles and toss everything together until well combined.
Enjoy your noodles on their own or alongside a skinless chicken breast cooked without added fat.

⭐️ Today’s exercise: oblique crunches!
You’ve probably heard of the oblique crunch exercise.
But do you know how to do it properly?
This move will help you work your abs and target your entire core.
It’s ideal for slimming your waist and achieving a flat stomach.
1 – Start by lying on your back, hands behind your neck, elbows parallel.
2 – Lift both legs slightly off the ground and mimic a cycling motion.
3 – Bring your right elbow to meet your left knee, then return to the starting position (legs extended and balanced), then bring your left elbow to meet your right knee.
4 – Perform this movement while keeping the opposite leg fully extended, toes pointing towards the ceiling.
HOW MANY REPS SHOULD I DO?
We recommend starting with 20 reps and increasing by ten with each new session.
Take it step by step! The goal is to stay consistent — not to burn out in the first few sessions!
Aim to reach 60 oblique crunches.

How to burn fat?
You’ve started your training sessions with our Wonder Body Guide ? To maximise your results, you also need to rebalance your diet. Here’s an effective fat-burning smoothie recipe to give you that extra boost!
Ingredients:
- 1 banana
- 1 apple
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Milk (or a little water, to taste)
Method:
The apple helps curb snacking and cinnamon helps burn fat!
To make this recipe, you’ll need a blender or a food processor. Peel the banana and apple and cut them into small pieces. Place everything in the food processor or blender. Add the cinnamon and blend until smooth. For a lighter consistency, add a splash of milk (or water) and blend again.
Best served chilled!
