She has become a champion for fighting childhood obesity since moving into the White House.
And First Lady Michelle Obama led from the front as she showed off her sporting prowess at an event in New Orleans today.
Mrs Obama, 46, is well known for her regimented fitness regime. And she certainly looked full of energy as she took part in a sports day at the city's Woldenberg Park.
Mrs. Obama and former Indianapolis Colts coach Tony Dungy visited Woldenberg Park, along with former New Orleans Saints running back Deuce McAllister and former Tampa Bay linebacker Derrick Brooks.
Her visit is the day before the Super Bowl champion Saints host the Minnesota Vikings in the National Football League's (NFL) first game of the regular season.
Dressed on a black leggings and a sports top, Mrs Obama leaped into the air to catch a ball, weaving in and out of a mini assault course.
Mrs Obama's Let's Move programme to improve children's nutrition teamed up with the NFL's Play 60, a programme encouraging an hour of play a day.
And she certainly taught by example as she ran, jumped and puffed her way through an energetic session along with the NFL players.
Addressing the crowd of children, she said: 'We want you guys to grow up strong. And we want you guys to grow up healthy.
'You can be smart. You can be funny, but if you are not in good health, it is going to be a hard road to go.'

‘Jiggle, jiggle, jiggle’. I’m not referring to the kid in the pic, BTW.
'Did you know that if you follow play 60 and you keep moving for 60 minutes everyday that you can get an award from the president?'
No thanks. I’d rather watch grass grow.

Looks like they mugged someone and they are making a fast getaway with the loot. Where is a cop when you need one!
Another in a very long list of inappropriateness.
Yeah, think I’d rather back-up my hard drive and NAS. Then I’ve got a few edged weapons to clean and sharpen. Then there’s the preparations for my own 9/11 remembrance this Saturday. I’d only be interested in seeing Michelle or hussein obama ... behind bars.
I’d hit it.
I’d hit it.
“By the way where’s her dog? “
I thought that was the one on the right.
ha ha ha
Wow. Moochelle can out-run a morbidly obese black boy.
I don’t care who you are, that’s funny right there!
‘You can be smart. You can be funny, but if you are not in good health, it is going to be a hard road to go.’
I’ll bet it is a hard row to hoe as well.
