Get fit with the stars of Dollhouse!
Joss Whedon is the TV writer when it comes to dramas that showcase girls kickin' butt (who wasn't motivated to hit the gym after watching Buffy's vampire slaying moves?). So it made sense to call up the actresses of his new series Dollhouse, now in its second season, for SELF's partner workout. Costars Eliza Dushku (a Buffy alum!) and Dichen Lachman toned together to show you how dropping pounds is better with a buddy.
Keep reading for the stars' shape-up secrets, and head over to the Fitness pages for a video demonstration. Don't forget to check out Eliza's and Dichen's moves here and in SELF's October issue, on newsstands September 22.
Eliza's Get Fit Tips: "If I work out, it makes a difference between whether I have a clear, present mind or a messy, clogged and irritable one!"
"Weight training is especially important in addition to doing the exercises properly with correct alignment and a clean diet. It makes me burn more throughout my day and feel amazing."
"I grew up playing outdoors, always running around playing sports with my brothers, signing up for any and all adventures that were around. Let the world be my playground!"
Dichen's Get Fit Tips: "I find with the gym it's very hard to motivate. Having someone to work out with, you end up motivating each other, and it's a great substitute for gym equipment!"
"Long hours mean you have to deal with fatigue, and being fit can help your general health. It helps to maintain a healthy lifestyle so you can do what is required."
"There are some simple things I do that just keep me moving: walking up stairs instead of taking the lift, parking further away than usual from your destination, cleaning my own apartment (putting some elbow grease in can break a sweat!).
What's your favorite way to break a sweat with a friend?
