Kate Beckinsale stars in the remake of ‘Total Recall‘ covers the July/August issue of Women’s Health Magazine and in the interview the actress talks a lot about fighting and how she got that super amazing body of hers! Here’s a few excerpts from the magazine;

Kate on her fight scene with Jessica Biel in her upcoming film Total Recall…
“It’s not like a naked, porno, mud-wrestling-in-a-bar sort of fight—it’s a real fight.”

Kate on the differences between fighting a man and a woman…
“I did find that fighting a woman was very different from when I’ve fought men. There was a lot of ‘I didn’t hurt you, did I? Ooh, I’m sorry about that! No, it was my fault!’”

Kate on not knowing how to run when starting to film 2003’s Underworld…
“I could run if a bear were chasing me, but I ran like a girl with my arms like this [flails arms]. The day they asked me to try a few punches, it was dismal. All I could see what despair in the stunt coordinator’s face.”

Kate on switching from intense gym workouts to yoga-based routines…
“I’d gotten particularly sick of being photographed outside a gym doing a squat with a medicine ball.”
