Brie Larson In Bathing Suit Enjoys 'Playtime'

For this Marvel superstar, it's the simple things that count. Brie took to Instagram to share a series of photos that told the story of her fun weekend with friends. Sporting a two-piece bikini, the actress ran around the lawn to enjoy the sprinkler mist and enjoyed a board game with her pals.

"Sometimes all you need is a sprinkler, a charcuterie board, a polaroid and friends!" she captioned her post.

She trains hard and it definitely shows on her body. Her incredibly toned figure is more than enough proof of how serious she is about being fit. Some of her intense training sessions have occasionally resulted in bruises.

In a previous Instagram post, Brie shared a leg bruise that she got from training. "Summer is here but bruises from training are in every season  😂," she captioned the pic.

To keep things interesting, Brie doesn't stick to a regular workout routine. She tries out different activities and exercises that challenge her body. According to one of her social media updates, she recently took up pole dancing. Her pole-dancing photo showcased impressive arm and core strength.

Weak core muscles can lead to poor posture and back problems, says Mayo Clinic. Some of the workouts that can help strengthen your core include planks, situps, bridge, and fitness ball exercises.

In an interview with InStyle, Brie shared that she holds a little bit of Captain Marvel in her. Like the superhero, Brie believes in her own skills and abilities. She is confident in what she can do and this reflects in her actions. This self-assured attitude has helped her reach a high level of success.

"I do believe in my abilities, and I do value myself, and I do know that I'm strong, and I do know that I can do a lot of things that people don't think I can do."

She knows she deserves the spotlight and doesn't play small or apologize for who she is. In the same interview, Brie also explained some of Captain Marvel's traits that have inspired her. According to her, one of the reasons she took on the iconic role is because of its significance in today's world. While she is the strongest superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, she is still flawed.

"She didn't apologize for herself," she started. "I felt like that was a really valuable trait, because she is incredibly flawed and makes a lot of mistakes … and has to ask to atone for them, and that is super valuable. She's not ever shrinking herself down."
