In Suicide Squad, Margot Robbie plays Harley Quinn, a supervillain who spends the bulk of the movie in tiny shorts.

There is also the scene in which Harley changes her shirt, leaving her virtually naked on screen.MARGOT WEARS A MIU MIU SKIRT AND TOP, PICTURE BY DAVID SLIJPER

In the two weeks before shooting this scene, in particular, Robbie worked out for two to three hours a day, according to her personal trainer Andie Hecker.

But instead of high-intensity interval training — the golden standard for a quick transformation — she practised a Pilates-based routine, incorporating more reps and a wider range of motion than is typical, Hecker says.

Because the actress has a background in ballet (having danced in her teens), Hecker threw in a circuit that involved ballet jumps, a jump rope, and a rebounder (a mini trampoline designed for fitness).

“It was very important to me to keep her regime well-rounded in order to condition the entire body and not overwork any one muscle group,” Hecker told Cosmopolitan.com, also describing Margot’s fitness plan as “hardcore”.

While the routine above sounds exhausting on its own, Robbie topped it off by swimming laps.

According to Hecker, the actress didn’t restrict her calories while amping up her workouts, which is a good thing since she needed every bite to fuel her training and keep the curves that made her look like a “𝑠e𝑥y badass”, as required.

We can all agree the supervillian’s mission was accomplished.
