To get ready for her role in Fifty Shades Darker, Dakota Johnson enlisted two trainers to help her look good naked. I mean, yeah, there's a lot of sexy time in the new Fifty Shades Of Grey movie--who could blame the girl for wanting to look fit AF??
On the West Coast, she worked with none other than Gunnar Peterson (the fitness guru who also trained with Khloe Kardashian). In New York, she got help from Kacy Duke. The two trainers shared their insane workout routines for the actress with Vogue. Get the deets--->

Dakota didn't just want to look good naked but feel good too. So, Peterson and Duke came up with a regimen to target what Peterson dubs the “Triple A” (abs, arms, and ass).
Once Dakota was filming in Vancouver and Seattle, she was all on her own for workouts. She mixed yoga classes with a 45-minute personalized routine from Duke. Click to learn the movies for yourself--->
The Push-Up Tri-Fector
You'll need two small towels or a pair of gliders for this one.
Start in plank position with your hands a little wider than shoulder-width
apart. Put a towel or glider under each foot.
Start doing push ups (if you can't do one, stay in plank position)
Transition into basic pull-ins. Bring your knees toward your
shoulders, then straight back three times in a smooth movement.
Do three mountain-climbers.
Then do three pull-ins with open/close legs at the end.
Repeat two times.

New York Booty Lift Tri-fector
You'll need at least two 2lb weights (one for each hand) and can go up to 5lbs.
Start in a lunge position with a weight in each hand. Your
front knee should be directly in line with your heel. Lunge up and down while doing a bicep curl with each movement for a count of 8 or 12.
Hold the last rep in lunge position.
Straighten the back leg while lifting the heel off the floor and staying
on the ball of the foot.
While moving the upper torso, rock forward and back 8 to 12 times.
Keep your back and arms straight without rounding your shoulders.
While holding the last rep, slowly pull your elbows behind you and without moving your legs or upper body, do 8 to12 triceps kick-backs. Switch legs and complete full circuit.
Do two more sets of 8 to 12 reps on each leg.
