Watch: Ashley Graham's Insane Supermodel Workout

Work it, Ashley Graham!

The 28-year-old curvy model is killing it with her workouts, as seen in recent videos she has posted on her Instagram page, which show her kickboxing, jump-roping and weight-lifting and other moves to keep trim and get strong.

Graham made her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover debut earlier this year and also appears on the latest cover of Maxim. Some fans have said the image is Photoshopped, while the photographer denies this.

Graham hates being labelled "plus-size."

"I've got plenty of friends [of all sizes] and different shapes and everything," she told E! News. "And I don't want any of them to feel like they aren't 'real women.'"

Graham said she understands "that a lot of women still love" the term "plus-sized" but adds, "for someone like me, I don't feel the connection to the word."

Former model Cheryl Tiegs, 68, stirred controversy in February when she criticized Graham over her fuller figure.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell, 45, had come to Graham's defense, saying, "she's not a beast. I think sometimes our bones are bigger and we're just built that way. That doesn't mean we're fat. I wouldn't comment on someone's size. I just think it's wrong."
