London, Apr 19 (ANI): US First Lady Michelle Obama has revealed that she often has to work out twice a day since security measures don’t allow her to walk outside.

“We don’t get to walk much. Don’t feel sorry for me - but we don’t walk as much, because they don’t want you to walk,” the Daily Mail quoted her as speaking on The View.

“We can’t walk outside, so the amount of steps that it takes just to stay in shape sometimes requires putting in some extra time,” she added.

Michelle, whose toned arms became famous after her husband’s inauguration,shares a personal trainer with her husband, Cornell McClellan, who visits from Chicago on a regular basis.

McClellan, who has worked with the Obamas for a decade, told the New York Times that the Obamas try to exercise for at least an hour every day, though given their demanding schedules it is sometimes just two to four times a week. (ANI)
