Twlight Beauty Ashley Greene in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "Be Consistent With Your Health"
Ashley Greene may have gained our attention through the Twilight series, but she's also passionate about her health and wellness, inspiring others to care, as well. "Being consistent with your health is the best gift you can give yourself. Mindset over motivation. @stark.health @stephanie_urbz #healthiswealth," she said on Instagram. Here are some things that Ashley does to stay looking so fit and healthy.
She works on herself
She aims to be the best version of herself. "My husband and I did something this year that was transformative in both mind and body. It tested our strength, our willpower and our support of one another. We joined @stark.health and embarked on a 5 month competition dedicated to lifting you up and enabling you to become your best self while raising money for an organization you are passionate about. I went in post baby, not recognizing my body, and came out loving my new normal. I've never felt stronger. After having my daughter – it's more important than ever to model healthy behavior, self love and strength," she said on Instagram.
She's dedicated
She's committed to putting in the time and energy to work on her health and wellness. "I am dedicated to putting in the work to rebuild a strong base. I am also dedicated to giving myself grace and remaining eternally grateful for the beautiful life my body graciously helped me create and nurture. I don't think my body will ever be quite "the same" and I'm learning to be ok with that," she said on Instagram.
She works on her endurance
She works on her endurance. "Endurance. In this layer we introduce challenging movement patterns for more complexity and progressively longer periods to build endurance of the stabilizing musculature. Now we're getting into the thick of it. This layer gave me a nice little sweat and some soreness in the glutes," she said on Instagram. "I am going to demo all exercises again in this video because we switch it up just a little." According to the National Institute on Aging, "endurance exercises improve the health of your heart, lungs, and circulatory system. They also can delay or prevent many diseases that are common in older adults such as diabetes, colon and breast cancers, heart disease, and others."
She listens to her body
She works on activating and listening to her body. "ACTIVATION. In this layer we will be completing everything from Layer One and adding in additional targeted activation of specific core and gluteal/hip muscles. Everything is likely still waking up in your body so it's completely normal if it takes some time to fully activate the muscles in harmony. I encourage you to work up to the ten reps versus trying to knock them out all at one. This ensures you're doing the exercise correctly and stopping to listen to your body. It's better to take things slow than to overdo it. Give yourself grace," she said on Instagram.
She takes time to reconnect
She takes the time to reconnect with her body during workouts. "I'm excited to introduce layer one: RECONNECTION: re- establishing the neural connection and coordination between your pelvic floor and core. Can't wait to hear what you think! #postpartum #pelvicfloor #postpartumfitnessjourney," she said on Instagram.
