Ashley Greene is reminding her fans and followers how important fitness and health are for overall happiness. Greene, 37, shared a video of herself wearing black workout gear, lifting weights at the gym and doing strength training exercises. “Being consistent with your health is the best gift you can give yourself. Mindset over motivation. @stark.health @stephanie_urbz #healthiswealth,” she captioned the post. Here’s how the actress stays fit, happy, and strong.
Greene has always lived a very active life. “Growing up, my parents always encouraged sports and physical activity,” she told The Chalkboard Mag. I started martial arts very young, and I guess that would be the moment – I remember how much I loved always striving to be stronger, better and more disciplined. I have an app on my phone, Stretching Sworkit, that I like. It has both stretching and pilates. I also have a really steep, long driveway that I’ll sprint up and down alongside my pups.”
Greene loves a good cardio session. “My favorite type of workout for a fun, fast-paced, full-body cardio fix would probably be Rise Nation,” she told SELF. “I love a great hike because it clears my head and I can take along the pups. And for an intense strength workout, I love training with Jason Walsh at Rise Movement.”
Greene says she drinks water before, during and after her workouts. “When I’m at home I enjoy coconut water as well,” she told The Chalkboard Mag. “I mentioned Organic Muscle Milk previously, but it really gives me what I need to recover. I also drink tons of water to rehydrate – and the occasional iced green tea, if I need an extra pick-me-up.”
Greene is grateful for every year that passes. “My mother always told me I’d love my 30s, and I finally understand what she meant,” she told New Beauty. “I feel like I am finally coming into my own, and I’ve got so much to accomplish in the years to come. I’m genuinely excited about getting a bit older and wiser.”
Greene focuses on good hydration when it comes to her skincare routine. “Once I hit my 30s, I began to immediately see a difference in my skin if I neglected to hydrate it internally and externally, so there is a lot more focus on that,” she told New Beauty. “My beauty regime has certainly taken center stage. I love clean beauty brands that have limited but impactful ingredients. OSEA Hyaluronic Acid and Sea Cleanser, Beautycounter Vitamin C and #3 Balancing Oil are daily go-tos. Beautycounter also has a great overnight resurfacing peel I swear by. Ilia is my favorite clean beauty brand, their Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 is my favorite way to get daily SPF defense and a beautiful natural glow.”
