Tang Yan, born in 1983, is categorized as a “minor flower dan” alongside Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Angela Baby, and Liu Shishi. Tang Yan rose to prominence in 2015 after appearing in a series of works such as With You Forever, Diamond Lover, Chinese Paladin, Lady and the Liar, and Legend of Fragrance…
Recently, Tang Yan attended the Fendi Spring/Summer 2024 show as part of Milan Fashion Week in Italy on September 17, alongside Song Hye Kyo. The event was likened to a gathering of two ageless goddesses by the audience.
To maintain her timeless beauty and appearance, she adheres to the following fundamental principles:
Moderate Diet
Tang Yan typically has a glass of milk and an apple for breakfast. Her lunch consists of vegetables and starchy foods, while her evening meal usually avoids starch-rich dishes to prevent abdominal fat accumulation.
Stay Hydrated
Water aids in flushing out toxins from the body, thereby reducing acne and rashes. Adequate hydration also provides an ideal environment for the skin to regenerate and heal. Tang Yan is also a fan of green tea, which is rich in antioxidants and helps slow down the aging process.
Never Overeat
Tang Yan mentions that she never overeats and always stops when she feels her body has received the necessary calories. She ends her meals when she feels 70% full and complements her diet with exercise to burn calories and maintain a slender figure.
Eating until you’re 70% full is not only recommended for weight loss but also for overall health, as it helps prevent metabolic and cardiovascular issues. Chewing slowly allows you to regulate your food intake. This practice is emphasized in ancient Chinese and Japanese wellness philosophies.
Jump Rope
Tang Yan often brings her jump rope to film sets. She takes advantage of any spare time to engage in this full-body workout. Jumping rope not only burns a significant number of calories and effectively melts fat but also enhances cardiovascular and pulmonary function while improving blood circulation.
Yoga
Tang Yan attributes her slender figure and relaxed state of mind to yoga. It helps soothe her body and mind after long, exhausting workdays. Yoga also promotes better blood circulation, ensuring that blood flows efficiently throughout her body.
