President Obama & Michelle Obama’s Fitness Secret
First Lady Michelle Obama has received much recognition for her exceptionally fit and fabulous figure, while President Obama has been highly praised as a healthy and fit role model.
From the First Lady’s fondness for Hula-hoops and treadmills to the President’s own love for hoops (the other kind), here’s what works for the First Family:
Michelle Obama focuses on variety in diet and fitness, from allowing French fries (but just a few!) for treats to hula-hoops to running or walking on the treadmill. President Obama once told a People magazine reporter that his wife “is the best Hula-Hooper I know.”
President Obama follows his wife’s lead when it comes to variety: he jogs, lifts weights, and loves to play basketball. He also believes in eating right, and agrees with his wife on the importance of limiting or eliminating fast food and processed food.
