Taylor Lautner, Actor

It may not look like it now, but Taylor Lautner isn't a naturally strong guy. He became that way out of necessity. After all, between the first and second Twilight films, his character grew into a powerful werewolf. That meant he needed to gain 30 pounds of muscle in a year. Which he did, transforming his 5'10", 140-pound, teenage frame into a rippled fitness animal. You might say that going from scrawny to brawny was simply a brilliant career move. But he isn’t done yet: "My character continues to grow," says Lautner, who’s now starring in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, "so I'd like to pack on at least a few more lean pounds."

Kellan Lutz, Actor

Kellan Lutz understands the power of a six-pack. His abs epiphany came during an eighth-grade graduation party at a water park. "Before then, I never knew abs were attractive," says the 25-year-old, who plays vampire Emmet Cullen in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. "Where I grew up in Arizona, you would never see anyone without a shirt on at school. But when I took off my shirt, all the girls were, like, 'Oh, look at your abs!' And I was, like, 'Yeah!'" Psychologists call this "positive reinforcement." And Lutz instinctively knew what to do: Stay active.

To make sure his abs keep popping, Lutz uses a total-body circuit workout that includes a mix of core, upper-body, and lower-body exercises, all performed at a fast pace to burn calories and torch belly fat.

Ashley Greene, Actress

To play a vampire in the third installment of the blockbuster Twilight series, the actress had to sculpt her 5’5” frame into a lean, mean fighting machine. During filming, she focused on cardio and side planks (great for toning her obliques—her trouble area), and even held squat contests with her female co-stars. When it comes to staying in shape on the road, she’s a fan of Wii Fit video games.

The best way to a zippy metabolism and a sleek physique is not through the treadmill alone. For the best results, you need to add iron. Check out the best strength training for women and get lifting.
