'Corset Kate' reveals fitness secrets
January 2, 2009
British actress Kate Winslet, who became so well-known for starring in period dramas when she was younger that she was nicknamed 'Corset Kate' has revealed the secret behind her amazing figure.
Kate has always been a champion of curvy women and she looked gorgeous in corsets for films such as Titanic and Sense and Sensibility.
She is now back with two high-profile films, The Reader and Revolutionary Road, and she is looking better than ever.
But Kate, who has two young children and still describes herself as a "very vocal drum-beater for normal women", says that she never goes to the gym and instead exercises at home.
She explained to Elle magazine: "I don't go to the gym because I don't have time but I do Pilates workout DVDs for 20 minutes or more every day at home.
"I still don't believe in this craziness for being skinny, but I eat sensibly and I don't stuff down chocolate biscuits."
