Don't I've read the books and the Cullens are meta-human tier at best. While yes they are physically awesome they are still slower then cars and they aren't as strong as diamond. A Captain AMerica Punch would shock them. But he is still weaker. Thor and Hulk would virtually rip them apart though.
Really dude???
I gritted my teeth and grabbed his big hand. "One, two-"
"Three" he grunted, and shoved against my hand.
Nothing happened.
Oh I could feel the force he was exerting. My new mind seemed pretty good at all kinds of calculations, and I could tell if he wasn't meeting any resistance, his hand would've smashed right through the granite boulder without difficulty. The pressure increased, and I wondered randomly if a cement truck doing forty miles an hour down a sharp decline would have similar power. Fifty miles an hour? Sixty? Probably more.
It wasn't enough to move me. His hand shoved against mine with crushing force, but it wasn't unpleasant. It felt kind of good in a weird way. I'd been so very careful since the last time I woke up, trying so hard not to break things. It was a strange relief to use my muscles. To let the strength flow rather than struggling to restrain it.
Emmet grunted; his forehead creased and his whole body strained in one rigid line toward the obstacle of my unmoving hand. I let him sweat - figuratively - for a moment while I enjoyed the sensation of the crazy force running through my arm.
A few seconds, though, and I was a little bored with it. I flexed; Emmett lost an inch.
I laughed. Emmett snarled harshly through his teeth.
"Just keep your mouth shut," I reminded him, and then I smashed his hand into the boulder. A deafening crack echoed off the trees. The rock shuddered, and a large piece of the mass broke off at an invisible fault line and crashed to the ground. It fell on Emmett's foot, and I snickered. I could hear Jacob and Edwards muffled laughter.
Emmett kicked the rock across the river. It sliced two maples in half before thudding against a big fur, which swayed and then fell into another tree.
"Rematch. Tomorrow."
"It's not going to wear off that fast," I told him. "Maybe you ought to give it a month."
Emmett growled, flashing his teeth."Tomorrow."
"Hey whatever makes you happy, big brother."
As he turned and walked away, Emmett punched the granite, shattering off an avalanche of shards and powder. It was kind of neat, in a childish way."
Fascinated by the undeniable proof that I was stronger than the strongest vampire I'd ever met, I placed my hand, fingers spread wide, against the rock. Then I dug my fingers slowly into the stone, crushing rather than digging; the consistency reminded me of hard cheese. I ended up with a hand full of gravel.
"Cool," I mumbled.
With a grin stretching my face, I whirled in a sudden circle and karate chopped the rock with the side of my hand. The stone shrieked and groaned, and - with a big poof of dust - split in two.
I started giggling.
I didn't pay much attention to the chuckles behind me while I punched and kicked the rest of the boulder into fragments.

" And ruin you're pretty dress? No we're jumping." I pursed my lips, considering. The river was about fifty yards wide here.
"You first" I said.
... Edward jumps across the river and does a somersault...
"Show off." I muttered, and heard his invisible laugh.
I backed up five paces, just in case, and took a deep breath.
Suddenly, I was anxious again. Not about falling or getting hurt - I was more worried about the forest getting hurt.
It had come on slowly, but I could feel it now - the raw, massive strength thrilling in my limbs. I was suddenly sure that if I wanted to tunnel UNDER the river, to claw or beat my way through the bedrock, it wouldn't take me very long. The objects around me - the trees, the shrubs, the rocks... The house - had all begun to look very fragile.
Hoping very much that esme was not particularly fond of any trees across the river, I began my first stride.
.... Her dress splits and she had to rip it...
Unhindered by my skirt, it only took one long bound to reach the waters edge. Just an eighty-fourth of a second, and yet it was plenty of time - my eyes and my mind moved so quickly that one step was enough. It was simple to position my right foot just so against the flat stone and exert the adequate pressure to send my body wheeling up into the air. I was paying more attention to aim than force, and I erred on the amount of power necessary. The fifty yard width was TOO easy a distance...
It was a strange, giddy, electrifying thing, but a short thing. An entire second had yet to pass, and I was across.
I was expecting the close-packed trees to be a problem, but they were surprisingly helpful. It was a simple matter to reach out with one sure hand as I fell back toward the earth again deep inside the forest and catch myself on a convenient branch; I swung lightly from the limb and landed on my toes, still fifteen feet from the ground on the wide bough of a spruce.
It was fabulous."
... She found out she had jumped over twice Edwards distance...

Meta human tier my a$$ !!!
Also, a freakin BABY turned into a vampire has the strength to destroy an entire village, with all the people in it!!!
And also-
"A vampires physical and mental abilities far exceed those of a human being. Vampires can run in excess of a hundred miles an hour. They are able to lift objects thousands of times their own weight. Their senses are similarly boosted, giving them the ability to see, hear, and smell things imperceptible to humans. Their skin is harder than granite, rendering their bodies virtually indestructible. Their minds work many times faster than humans are capable of, and all vampires have perfect recall."
