American actress CARRIE-ANN MOSS is soaking day and night in hot baths - in an attempt to stave off the aches and pains as she trains for the MATRIX II.

Moss, who starred alongside KEANU REEVES in the first movie, has personal trainers putting her through her paces on a daily basis every day from now until the start of filming in Australia early next year (01).

And the brave actress is managing to keep the aches and pains at bay - by soaking morning and night in hot relaxing baths. She says, "I'm in training and it entails a lot. Showing up every day, stretching, kicking, learning different fights and stuff. "I was so stiff on the weekend, but I have a bath every morning and night to keep the aches away." (SVD/WN/NFA)
