Ashley Tisdale, 29, covers the June issue of Health Magazine. She’s promoting her role on the new TBS sitcom Clipped, where she plays a sassy hairdresser in a family-owned barbershop set in Boston. You can see the trailer for the show on Deadline. It’s not my style of comedy but it could be funny. Clipped premieres on June 16.

Ashley got her start on Disney’s High School Musical and has made guest appearances on several shows along with her regular gig as a voice actress on Phineas and Ferb. I know Ashley from all the paparazzi photos we used to get of her years ago, but unlike her fellow HSM stars Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron she hasn’t been that visible lately. That’s probably because she got married, to musician Christopher French of the band Annie Automatic, in 2014.

In her interview with Heath, Ashley said that she dedicates an hour a day to working out. She also explained that she’s started a production company with her sister, and that she’s excited to be back on a television series. Here are some excerpts with much more on Health.com.

On her Twitter ‘oops’ moments…
“…in my past relationships, I used to passive-aggressively tweet. When I got out of one relationship, I said something like ‘Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.’ I was like, ‘I probably shouldn’t have shared that with everybody.’”

On women in Hollywood…
“I feel like it’s so important to support other women and their dreams. My production company—Blondie Girl Productions—is me and my sister, and every time I meet a female producer, I’m like, ‘Yeah, let’s do this’ because usually it’s a lot of dudes! It’s a hard business to break into.’”

On the biggest misconception about her…
“I think people have a perspective of me that I’m this blonde and I just like to shop. I’m deeper than what people expect. Even with my production company, people think I have somebody else running it, but then they start to see, ‘Wow, she does do it.’”

On her dislike of spin…
“I’m going to be the spin hater now. I used to do SoulCycle, but a ton of trainers have told me that spinning is good but you’re not burning as much as you think you are. And it bulks you up in places you probably don’t want. My body started to change for the better when I stopped doing it.”

On her health fears…
“…it also scares me to think about how much time we’re on our phones and in front of the TV. When I was younger, we didn’t have Twitter. We didn’t have Instagram. I catch myself where I’ve been on it for way too long. It’s not OK.”

On what she appreciates most about life with husband Christopher French…
“… he’s the most patient man I have ever met. I’m not very patient.”

On her biggest goal…
“…One of my main goals is to win an Emmy for best actress.”

I love spinning, which is why I’m covering this. I have a spin bike in my house, I do programs on YouTube (this class is my favorite and this is a close second) and I take spin classes at the gym about once or twice a week. (I used to spin more often, but now I mix it up with kickboxing and Zumba because I get bored doing the same thing.)

If Ashley doesn’t like to spin that’s fine, but I really dislike it when women erroneously claim that we “bulk up” from doing certain exercises and that we should strive to be lean. In fact spinning does not bulk you up, that’s a misconception. It may make your thighs stronger, but that’s not the same thing. (I know it’s anecdotal, but it made my legs smaller.) Ashley is parroting what she’s heard from fraud trainer Tracy Anderson, who hates spin because it competes with her “method” for celebrity clients. Tracy regularly tells women that working with larger weights or doing basically anything she doesn’t teach will “bulk” them up (which is not true) and that they have to use her method to look thin. It’s about marketing and selling exclusivity and celebrities like Ashley Tisdale (who has been a client of Tracy’s) eat it up.

In her full Health interview, Ashley mentions that she works out with her trainer, Jason Walsh, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Walsh runs a group climbing class called Rise Nation and also trains Jessica Biel, Chrissy Tiegen, Minka Kelly and Hilary Duff. It’s interesting to me how trainers and workouts go in and out of style with celebrities. It doesn’t sound like Tracy Anderson’s method is that popular at this point.

Also, I like how Ashley says her goal is to win an Emmy for best TV actress. That sounds somewhat realistic.
