Kate Beckinsale ensured the camera was at just the right angle during her weekend workout. The 46-year-old actress returned to Instagram on Saturday with another of her legendary sweat session videos – coupled with her insane flexibility and power attitude, Kate seems able to deliver the kinds of workouts seen on starlets half her age.
While December 2019 saw the "Underworld" actress dubbed Benjamin Button on account of her youthful appearance, comments left to Kate's latest spandex-clad workout video were likewise complimentary – well, most of them.

Kate's video showed her filmed from behind and engaging in a careful rolling exercise with both hands navigating two dumbbells. The British beauty was resting her knees on a supportive mat as she rolled her body back and forth while keeping her shoulders and hips square.
Kate wore a tight black pair of spandex leggings with sheer panel details on the side, also going sheer with her thin-strapped white top – a muscle-flaunting black sports bra was worn underneath. Kate also wore Nike sneakers to match her leggings, plus her long hair tied into a ponytail.

A caption from Kate fully admitted that she'd shot down the exercise as unnecessary and, in her own words, "useless." Trainer B-Rad was given a shout-out as Kate conveyed that his exercise was one she'd been dubious about – finding that it turned out to be more than it seemed saw Kate regret her initial thought process.
"Could not have given @bradsiskind more sh*t about how this was a useless exercise that had no effect at all and now can’t laugh without feeling I was kicked quite hard by four toddlers in metal shoes so ok I admit when I’m wrong," she wrote.

Kate is known for fan interaction, doing just this as a comment came in regarding her age.
"How does it feel being 46 and working out @katebeckinsale," the user asked.
"It's weird, it's like every time I move coffin dust flies out from my armpits and Father Time keeps shouting "TWO MORE REPS DEATH IS COMING". Um it feels the same as it ever did you weirdo," the star responded.
Kate is, of course, notorious for shooting down comments with her razor-sharp wit, having done so recently when a fan called her an "artificial puppet."

Kate's Instagram following may be relatively modest at 4 million, but engagement is high on "The Widow" star's account. Kate's video clocked an impressive 1 million+ views in 13 hours, also bringing in over 3,450 comments.
Fitness-wise, Kate seems all set – and she's getting profiled. The star fronted Women's Health in December 2019 ahead of its 2020 issue, with Kate seen revealing that she eats chicken or eggs with grass-fed butter for her protein, but stimulants such as caffeine or alcohol are out.
