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.'

Nothing jiggles with the right undergarment.
Okay, so she picks the fattest kid out of the bunch and challenges him to a race and that is supposed to make her look athletic? Gimme a break!! She’s still a cow and if she’s going to preach to the kids of America how to be fit, then she should start by losing a few pounds herself. Then again, she’s a lefty so it’s do as I say not as I do...
you can put lipstick on a, oh well
You double-posted- No take-backs;)
Now you know why bloody vikings don’t wear corsets ... 8<)
You bet....and just try swinging a long blade or an ax while wearing one.
Ooof!
Talk about pinching!
I know she had no intentions of wearing a tight outfit, it's just that, she exceeded the largest sizes available. She should have worn sweat pants. This outfit is extremely inappropriate for a "First Lady" even if this person is impersonating one.
Back at the ranch: : Mrs Obama met up with her husband US President Barack Obama back at the White House in Washington
He looks thoroughly ticked off at her after her little excursion to the football field.
It sure beats crying over the millions of our tax dollars being spent on the "LOOK AT MEEEEEEEEE" campaign by our first (lady?).
There's that little girl dress again.
My grandmother sewed me a dress just like this in powder blue for my first day of kindergarten.
LOL. I can imagine the photo shopped products of that picture!!
What a disgusting display!
Having her photographed in spandex in those ridiculous poses.
What a stain on American history this creature is!
actually I think Baraq is starting to realize his toxic coattails are gonna produce a Dem wipeout in November
So for THIS she wears her wig but can’t for an international trip?
She loves those shoes!
Her wig is falling off. Now that would have been something if it had landed on the ground!
Noooooooooooooooo! No zot!
