Kaley Cuoco was apparently cupping on thursday — and she had mixed feeling about it
“The Big Bang Theory” star Cuoco hit up Instagram to post a jarring photo of of herself, sporting large circular marks on her bare back.
Actress Kaley Cuoco has not let self-quarantine slow down her workouts. In a new Instagram post, she showed fans her at-home workout session with sister Briana Cuoco, and it’s intense.
“A big part of quarantine has been about staying in shape and getting ready to go back to work at a moments notice . Thank you to @ryan_sorensen, my amazing trainer for keeping me fit and my crazy gorgeous sister @bricuoco for being my workout partner !! No pain no gain people! 💪🏼,” she captioned the photo series.
She documented basically her entire workout (which looks pretty tough) in multiple pictures. Worth noting: Right off the bat, Kaley’s butt looks super toned in her black leggings. In the first pic she has a resistance band around her waist that is being held by her trainer, Ryan Sorenson, as she does step-ups. Other exercises include weighted lunges and squats, single-leg balance work, running, and jumping rope with a resistance band around her ankles for an added challenge.
Kaley has always been a fan of working out, and she likes to mix it up. “If I’m doing yoga, we’re doing it every day this week….Then I’m like, ‘Oh my god, I have to switch,'” she previously told Women’s Health. “Then I’m going crazy on SoulCycle….’Okay, I have to switch.'” But she also likes to focus on legs and lower-body work, hence her svelte booty. “Kaley is interested in her lower body, especially her butt, her legs, and her abs,” trainer George C. King told People. “We do a lot of lunges, squat jumps and regular squats, plus leg curls and deadlifts.”
Yeah, it shows.
Kaley Cuoco is rocking a tight swimsuit while showing off her recent Iceland travels. The Flight Attendant star has been traveling to shoot Season 2 of the hit thriller series. While Kaley hasn’t posted to Instagram since Christmas, her assistant Emma Ross has been updating fans on the goings-on, with a recent snap showing the two having fun both at the beach and at rock pools. Kaley appeared in a small gallery, one showing the fun she’s been having while shooting the HBO show.

If you follow Kaley on Instagram, you’ll have seen her European travels for Season 1, which took her to Italy alongside some Stateside traveling in NYC. The sitcom star first appeared in a cute shorefront selfie with Emma as the two posed by freezing oceans and rocks. Kaley looked cute as a button here, wearing a light winter jacket, ribbed yellow turtleneck, plus a cozy gray beanie. Emma, meanwhile, kept warm in a dark coat as she rocked glasses.
A swipe right brought a little swimsuit action as Kaley and Emma posed for a selfie amid a steaming natural pool – fans saw Kaley in a clingy and sporty black one-piece with red and white lettering. Also included in the gallery were city shots and a reminder that Iceland is COLD.
Taking to her caption, Emma wrote: “I miss Iceland. Thank you @kaleycuoco for taking me there. Season 2 of @flightattendantonmax is gonna be special.” Swipe for the gallery below, scroll for more.
“Hurts so good,” the actress wrote in the photo’s caption, referencing the 1982 John Mellencamp song. “Cuoco added the hashtags, “#nofilter #cupping” and “#horsegirltanlines.”
The alternative practice of cupping therapy involves local suction being applied to the skin, which is drawn into cups by creating a vacuum. It is used to help treat pain, muscle knots and swelling.
Reactions to the photo varied. “That looks like something gone wrong straight out of ‘Silence of the Lambs,’” one comment read. “That’s a bit extreme, yes/ no?” another asked.
“Your scales are showing,” another remarked.
“I thought someone got a giant pepperoni [pizza] tattoo on their back.
