New Ashley Greene Talks About Her Breaking Dawn Workout

Breaking Dawn star Ashley Greene, who works out 5 days a week, wants to do an action film next.

Fight Training & Stunt Work for Breaking Dawn

"I want to do another action film because I had a ton of fun when we did stunt work [on Breaking Dawn]," Greene, 24, tells Company magazine.

"We did fight training and personal training. We worked our butts off and pretty much did every stunt we possibly could ourselves."

The athletic 5'5" Ashley, who does Pilates, yoga, martial arts, circuit-training and lots of cardio, says the key to looking your best is accentuating your positive attributes.

“I’ve certainly learned that every woman has a different body type so you have to learn to love yourself and work with what you have," says Ashley.

"If you were born with an athletic figure, you’re never going to have Scarlett Johansson’s body. Once you get past that, you become a lot happier in your clothes decisions and with yourself.”

'I Love Fashion & Being Glamorous'

Greene is grateful for the exposure the Twilight franchise has given her, but still has to fight for good roles.

"It has always been hard, but it is now very competitive," says Ashley. "It's hard to break out, and it is still hard for me. I am fighting for my next job.

"Nothing is set in stone. So you have to really love acting to go through that grind every day. But once you get a role, it's worth it."

Not surprisingly, Greene says working on Twilight was an amazing experience.

“To work with incredible directors is like a crash course for acting," she gushes.

"And we [the cast] have all become a family so it has been nice, personally and as an actor, to learn and grow with these people, and to have someone to relate to who is in the same circumstances.

The amount of attention and insanity surrounding those films changed all our lives. But it happened to us together and it’s had a tremendous effect on how close we are now.”

Ashley, who has parlayed her athletic good looks into a lucrative modeling career, was recently named a rep for DKNY jeans, the face of Mark Cosmetics, and also posed nude in a series of racy Sobe fitness water last year.

Fortunately, the green-eyed beauty loves fashion and getting glammed up.

"I like to shop; I like fashion," says Greene. "I like things that are not too super-girly but have a feminine twist. And I'm excited by amazing dresses!

"It's nice because, in everyday life, I like to be comfortable and put together, but on the red carpet, I love being glamorous. The whole dressing up thing is every girl's fantasy."
