Hudson, who is a co-founder of activewear brand Fabletics, sticks to a regular fitness routine, but when a major red carpet event is on her schedule, she steps her exercise up a notch.
"While I try to keep my fitness regimen consistent, during awards season, I'm especially conscious of what I'll be wearing and plan my workouts accordingly," she shared.
"If I plan to wear a sleeveless dress, I concentrate more on my arms during my workout the day before. If my outfit includes a short dress, I incorporate more leg moves and squats."
The star is also open to beauty enhancements before attending a major event.
"If I feel like I need a little colour, I'll get a natural spray tan," she noted. "Not only does this give me a little extra coverage, but it also allows me to achieve the bronzed look I want without the sun damage."
Hudson also likes to work on her famously calm red carpet demeanour, revealing a dedicated meditation practice helps her keep cool as the flashbulbs are popping.
"This is a key part of my daily routine, even if it's just five minutes when I focus and quiet my mind," she said. "Typically, I concentrate on a colour and set intentions such as clarity, peace, calmness and love. I focus in on these intentions and breathe."
