If you’ve been keeping up with Kate Hudson via Instagram, you’ve definitely spotted snapshots of her dreamy Mediterranean getaway in Greece, where she’s enjoying time with her family and filming Knives Out 2 (coming out in 2022). On top of that, you’ve probably seen the 42-year-old actress post intermittent videos of her grueling workouts — the ones that give her toned arms and shredded abs.
We’ve gotta give snaps to Hudson for staying devoted to her advanced fitness routine — from fixing her pushup form to crushing some TRX core exercises — during her idyllic beach vacation. And sure enough, an Instagram video of the star working out with a Bulgarian bag-shaped JoyPlus Aqua Bag caught our attention. “This gives 'staying centered' a whole new meaning for me 😜 First time taking this for a ride, definitely not the last 🌪,” she wrote in the caption. Essentially, the fitness tool functions as a sandbag that’s filled with water to add weight.

Hudson’s trainer and strength coach, Brian Nguyen, snagged the aqua bag from Amazon when planning how to weight train with Hudson as she traveled in Greece. With the ability to be emptied and rolled up, the equipment remains perfect for traveling and can even fit inside a backpack.
To further explain why he’s training the actress with the aqua bag, Nguyen reposted Hudson’s video. “I believe it’s crucial to incorporate rotational exercises to all athletic training programs… it totally improves the neuromuscular connection between the core and the rest of the body. I mean, check out Kate’s movement in this tornado drill while she digs for speed: her core is fighting for more integrity (stability) while her mobile joints (hips and shoulders) seem to unlock more with every turn!” Nguyen wrote in the Instagram caption. “Moreover, working with rotational movement not only prepares us for the forces of real life but also increases our capacity for greater power and more explosiveness throughout one’s range of motion: true athleticism, that is.”
Even after giving birth to three children, Hudson still flaunts an exceptional figure. And her playful Fabletics gear makes fitness look fabulous — she’s wearing the Euphoria 2-Piece Outfit in her Instagram video. It’s safe to say this Hollywood star has a few fitness tips up her sleeve, and we’re all for it!
