1. Her Workout Buddy Is Her Husband

Kate has a reliable workout buddy in the form of her husband. The two even hosted workouts on their Ferdinand Fitness YouTube channel, which they started during the pandemic to help stay in shape. "Consider getting a workout buddy. It's sometimes more fun to work out with another. It also can help keep you accountable. If you can't find a buddy due to schedules, signing up for an online fitness class can help keep you motivated. Use a workout or tracking app. Two popular ones are MyFitnessPal and Map My Fitness. These apps even synchronize with each other to gather all your information," says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Gets Meals Delivered

Kate started getting HelloFresh after welcoming her son, and claims it has been a game changer. “Dinner done, Courtesy of @hellofreshuk. We've been using Hello Fresh for the last few months and it has made our lives and meals so much easier, especially with a new baby!” To make prep easier: "Eggs are one of the most nutritious, low-calorie foods (only 78 calories per serving). A hard- or soft-boiled egg is a great topping or side for just about any dish: slice it on top of your avocado toast, add it to a rice bowl, salad, or just eat it by itself as a healthy mid-morning snack. Either way, eggs are on the top of our healthy breakfast ideas list, so make sure you put them on your meal prep list," says our sister site Eat This, Not That!

3. She Cycles

Kate and her family maintain an active lifestyle, with lots of outdoor hobbies. One of them? Bike rides. “Fun morning cycling with the fam,” she captioned this one. "Cycling is one of the healthiest and low-impact forms of exercise - meaning it causes less strain and injuries than most other work outs. So it's a hobby you can continue to enjoy throughout you long life. And, unlike other forms of exercise, you won't dread doing it. Even if you take cycling seriously and go at it hard, the blood pumping and wind in your face is still exhiliarating, even when it's difficult," says the University of Montana.

4. She Rows

Kate also likes rowing, using the Hydrow rowing machine. “Action shot…” she captioned this Instagram photo of one of her workouts. Why is rowing so great? It works almost every muscle in the body and is easy on the joints.

5. She Loves Exercising for Her Mind

“I’m a lot more relaxed than people think,” Kate told The Daily Star about her workout approach. “Everyone thinks I’m this regimented person who has to go to the gym at 4am every day but I’m not. I love working out, I love feeling active and it’s really good for my mind, but I also have a day off and I don’t beat myself up about it. I don’t cry if I don’t do it.”

6. She Does HIIT Workouts

“I work out four or five times a week, doing a mixture of ­high-intensity interval training and weights ­depending on how I am feeling. I do squats and lunges and I feel my bum is getting there – it’s a work in progress,” she revealed to The Daily Star.

7. She Does 500 Ab Exercises Per Week

If you want flat abs like Kate, you are going to have to start crunching away. “At the end of every workout, I do an ab ­finisher, which has five ab exercises – 20 of each so 100 in total. I think the best one is the bicycle crunch, which is good for the ­obliques on the side of your body,” she told The Daily Star.

1. She’s Sober

Kent is open about her struggles with alcoholism, and how she decided to get sober. “It's been awhile since I've posted about sobriety," she wrote on Instagram. "It's important for me to say that this is a disease that can only be self diagnosed. No one got me sober... I got me sober. I made the choice to work hard every day to not pick up a drink."

2. She Works Out With A Trainer

Kent is one of many of celebrity clients of trainer Jenna Willis. She posted this video on Instagram of the two of them doing one of Willis’ workouts together.
