The Lexicon reports this information from Summit:

“For the movie’s action sequences, the actors experimented with stunts and wire work, which Pattinson admits did not play to his strengths. “I got injured on the first shot of the first day,” he said. “I wasn’t even doing a stunt. I was just trying to pick up Kristen and I almost tore my hamstring because I hadn’t been doing enough squats. It was very embarrassing.”

“When we did have those hard days,” added Lutz, 23, “we would go back to Rob’s room. He had a couple of guitars in there and a lot of great music. It was really fun being able to relax and have the cast come together, having that time just to bond and not really be actors but friends.”"
