Michelle Obama has revealed that she gets up at 4.30 am or 5 am to workout with hubby Barack. Obama made the revelation on iVillage, the women’s website where she is serving as a guest editor this week, with a theme of ‘Rev Up Your Back-to-School Routine.’ “Barack and I work out every day. I usually get to the gym before he does,” the Daily Mail quoted her as telling the site. “But he is usually there either in the middle of my workout or right at the end. And we’re watching SportsCenter and we’re catching up. That’s why I know so much about sports ... and you start having an opinion about (New York Jets quarterbacks Tim) Tebow and Mark Sanchez. “If I don’t have space, I might do a 30-minute routine that includes jumping jacks, push-ups, then some sit-ups. You take a 30-second break and do it again,” she said. She said that she often brings a rope while on road, so that she doesn’t miss out on a workout session. “If I don’t have a rope or space, I might do a 30-minute routine that includes a minute of jumping jacks alternating with a minute of push-ups, then some sit-ups. You take a 30-second break and do it again,” she added.
