Dakota Johnson's trainer gives bizarre advice
Dakota Johnson's trainer is not like other fitness gurus

Dakota Johnson’s trainer Megan Roup believes less really is more. According to her, as little as ten minutes can reap extraordinary results.
According to E News, Roup said, "My philosophy is more about committing to less so that you can show up more," The Sculpt Society founder explained and mentioned she would instruct her high profile clients "do 10 minutes a day consistently throughout the week than maybe two workouts that are long, gruelling and hard."
That way, continued the Los Angeles-based mom to daughter Harlow, 3, and Mercer, 18 months (with husband Morgan Humphrey), "you build the habit. It doesn't feel like you're trapped in this never-ending cycle of you need to do hours a day. You're going to get beautiful physical and mental results, and you're just building it in that muscle of brushing your teeth every day."
She, too, gave her blood and sweat for her fitness levels. And what she learned, continued the former Brooklyn Nets dancer, is there's no need to be "trapped in this never-ending cycle that needs to be so gruelling."
As an over-committed working mom of two, "sometimes I don't have 20 minutes. So if I can just do a five or 10-minute video in the morning and then feel grounded in my body, I mentally feel more resilient, I go into my days in such a better place. And that is the beauty and power I think in fitness."
For the unversed, Roup trains celebrities like Dakota Johnson, Miranda Kerr, Elsa Hosk, and Sabrina Carpenter.
