Actress Taraji P. Henson, best known as Cookie Lyon in “Empire,” treated her over 16 million Instagram followers with photos of her post-workout waist.
The 50-year-old star is loved and respected for her outstanding performances in films and TV shows like “Hidden Figures” and “Empire,” but is also praised for her beautiful body.
To look as fit as Henson, one needs to be quite disciplined in the gym, and according to her longtime trainer, Mike T, that’s exactly what she is: disciplined.

SHE WORKS OUT HARD
Mike T once said that the actress’s focus was “second to none,” adding that she was the type of person who didn’t accept a “can’t do” for an answer. Instead, it would only make her want to try it even harder.
If that wasn’t enough, Mike T pointed out that Henson exercises seven days a week when she is not working, adding that she usually includes one or two hours of weight training and cardio.
The coronavirus pandemic negatively affected her fitness goals, though, but she confessed on social media that she and a friend would complete a 30-day fitness challenge to get back on track.
They successfully completed the challenge, and she recently took to Instagram to share a short video of her post-workout body, showing her followers the results.

In the already-expired Instagram Story, the actress appeared in front of a mirror in what appeared to be her bathroom while wearing a dark grey sports bra, a sleeveless, black top, and light grey bottoms.
Henson lifted her top so that her sweaty waist and belly were on full display, and it was definitely worth it. Her attractive tattoo, thin core, and toned abs were the highlights.

AMAZING BIKINI PICS
It is not the first time that the “Hidden Figures” actress shows off her beautiful body on social media, though. In September, Henson uploaded some bikini photos proving that age is just a number.
In the images taken during a beach getaway, she was rocking her animal-print bikini while striking different poses on the shore. Her beautiful body and braided red hair attracted all of the attention.
Henson made headlines in October 2020 after confirming that she and former NFL player Kevin Hayden, her fiancé, parted ways.
The actress admitted that they tried to save their relationship by going to therapy, but they were not on the same page. Sadly, and after being scheduled to be married in June 2020, they split.
