The Challenge
It’s Day 20 of the “My Body Challenge”.
The weekend is almost here, but that’s no reason to give up on your Body Challenge 🙂
As every day from now on: don’t forget your large glass of water (ideally with lemon) and your cold anti-cellulite shower (explained on Day 4).
For breakfast today: 1 bowl of unsweetened cereal of your choice with herbal tea and the fruit of your choice.
For dinner, we suggest the recipe for a Vegetable Loaf :
Ingredients (serves 4):
– 3-colour vegetable purées (e.g. carrot, celery, broccoli) > buy ready-made or prepare yourself
– 2 eggs
– 1 tablespoon of fromage blanc
Seasoning according to colour (e.g. carrot-tarragon, celery-nutmeg, broccoli-garlic)
Recipe preparation:
Mix 250 g of each purée with 2 eggs and a tablespoon of fromage blanc.
Season and spice each colour differently.
Layer them one after the other in a loaf tin. Bake for 30 min at 220°C (or 45 min in a bain-marie).
Serve warm as a side dish or cold as a starter with a fromage blanc-mayonnaise-chive sauce.
Tip: serve with a green salad
Exercise of the day: Glutes
Today, we build on yesterday’s exercise by focusing entirely on the glutes to lift and sculpt them.
An exercise that targets the gluteus medius, to shape the curve of the buttock, and the gluteus minimus, to tackle stubborn saddlebags!
Position: standing, hands on the back of a chair, back straight and core engaged.
Exercise: lift your right leg out to the side, foot flexed, in a small controlled movement, then slowly lower your leg without resting your foot on the floor.
Programme: 5 sets of 15 on each side.
Keep it up!
The daily palper-rouler massage
To tackle cellulite, the palper-rouler is the most effective massage technique there is.
This technique involves kneading the skin to stimulate lipolysis, which helps release fat from adipose cells while boosting circulation, both venous and lymphatic.
These actions help combat cellulite and the orange-peel effect, as well as reducing water retention. Ideal for eliminating toxins beneath the skin, this massage can be performed with a device, by a professional, or by hand.
The movement should always go from bottom to top to improve circulation. Although this technique can sometimes be uncomfortable, it is remarkably effective against all types of cellulite. A few basic principles should nonetheless be followed:
The massage should always be performed on an area that has been oiled beforehand.
The palper-rouler should not be performed on skin with open wounds, as this risks aggravating injuries and preventing proper healing.
The CelluBlue method:

The manual method:
This method only requires energy (elbow grease!), a little more time since it is less effective than with the cup, and a bit of patience to get the right precision.
Watch the video below for the full technique.
For today, massage each area for 10 minutes.
