My Body Challenge – Day 17

The Challenge

It’s Day 17 of the My Body Challenge.
Stay motivated!
As every day from now on: don’t forget your large glass of water (ideally with lemon) and your cold shower (explained on Day 4).
For breakfast today: 1 light Pancake (recipe from Day 7) with jam or maple syrup, a few almonds, a piece of fruit and a green tea.
For lunch, we suggest a light tuna loaf recipe:
 
Ingredients (serves 6):
– 1 large can of tuna (400g) (preferably tuna in spring water)
– 3 eggs
– 1 cup (240 ml) skimmed milk
– 80 g breadcrumbs OR 8 crushed crackers
– salt and pepper
Recipe preparation:
Before you start, preheat your oven to 175°C.
Flake the tuna into a mixing bowl.
Add the 3 eggs and breadcrumbs and mix well.
Add the milk and mix again – you can season with a little salt and pepper to taste and add a few herbs if you like.
Pour everything into an ungreased loaf tin and bake in the oven (at 175°C) for 45 minutes.
Tip: serve with a green salad and lemon dressing.
Today’s exercise: Ab bikes

Today we’re going to work your abs in just 10 minutes using the bicycle method.
The position is simple: lie on your back with your hands behind your ears, lift your legs and bend your knees.
Your left knee should come to meet your right elbow (and vice versa, right knee to left elbow). During this movement, your other leg should be extended without touching the floor. Then alternate this left/right movement.
Do 4 sets of 20 repetitions for a complete workout.

Your daily palper-rouler massage

Among the various massage techniques is the palper-rouler.
This technique involves kneading the skin.
This massage can be performed using a device, by a professional, or by hand.
The movement should always go from bottom to top. This technique can sometimes be uncomfortable. A few basic principles should be followed:
The massage should always be performed on skin that has been oiled beforehand.
The palper-rouler should not be performed on broken or wounded skin, as this could worsen injuries and interfere with healing.
The CelluBlue method:
Do you have a CelluBlue? Have you discovered our CelluBlue anti-cellulite cup?
This little tool is used to perform the palper-rouler massage technique.

The manual method:
This method only requires energy (a bit of elbow grease!), a little more time since the manual technique takes longer, and some patience to get the right technique.
Watch the video below for the full method.
For today, massage each area for 10 minutes.
