Michelle Obama’s knockout response to President Obama’s #GimmeFive challenge

First lady Michelle Obama just delivered a knockout response to a “Let’s Move” challenge delivered by President Barack Obama, who posted a YouTube video to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the first lady’s initiative.

On Tuesday night, Michelle Obama’s @FLOTUS Twitter account posted a video along with a cheeky reply to the president.

Hey, @POTUS! This is how you #GimmeFive, FLOTUS-style…

Michelle Obama, 51, performs a full-body workout that may explain how she keeps those fantastic arms. In addition to jumping rope, bench pressing 35-pound dumbbells and doing crunches with a medicine ball (a circuit comparable to that of Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred), the first lady shows her mastery of the cross-jab and roundhouse kick.

Even though her technique looks pretty flawless, the entire workout video is done under the supervision of fitness trainer Cornell McClellan, who is a member of President Obama’s Council on Fitness, Sports, and Nutrition.

Obama's Choice to Bare Arms Causes Uproar
March 2, 2009



The latest arms controversy embroiling the White House has nothing to do with the Second Amendment. Instead, it's sprung from criticism about Michelle Obama showing off her toned triceps and biceps in her first official photo as first lady.

The nation's first spouse, who often dons sleeveless attire, dared to show off her limbs in the picture that graces her Web site and was released Sunday.

"The sleeveless look is very much in keeping with what we've seen from Michelle Obama," said Politico White House reporter Malika Henderson of the first lady's black dress, which she set off with a white pearl necklace. "It is very much her signature look, so I wasn't that surprised."
