New mom Angelina Jolie is shedding her babyweight by working out using her kids' video game console. The stunning star has been battling to reclaim her former figure after giving birth to twins Knox and Vivienne back in July.

And her eldest son Maddox, seven, has shown her the way - by teaching her all about virtual Pilates on his Nintendo DS computer.

A family insider reveals, "The kids were convincing her that video games were more than just fun. They explained to her that you can do anything from practice math to learn to read music and exercise. She tries to get in an hour of Pilates three times a week. She's picking it up pretty quickly and is already at the hardest setting."
