Michelle Obama is one fit mom. The former first lady teased her toned abs in a new video on Thursday, October 15.
Michelle, 62, posed for a photo with her brother and IMO podcast co-host Craig Robinson and their guest, Kylie Kelce. In the short video shared to her Instagram Stories, Michelle wore a red and white striped crop top and burgundy striped pants. When she went to hug Kylie, she teased her toned abs.
Michelle is well known for her dedication to health and wellness. While in the White House, she launched her Let's Move! campaign which aimed to combat childhood obesity. She often hosted events to promote healthy eating and activity, which has translated into her incredibly toned physique.

In August 2026, the former first lady sat down with rapper Megan Thee Stallion on her podcast, IMO, and shared that her go-to workout was Solidcore, a more intensive version of Pilates that involved high-intensity and low-impact resistance training.
"I've been doing a lot of Pilates now. I'm just now getting hip to this new Pilates, and I'm like, okay, so I need to go to New York, and I need Solidcore," Megan said on the show.

"You're on the Megaformer, and let's say you hold a plank, but you're gonna hold it for three minutes. And then they're gonna have you crunch in from the holding position, and small little movements…and you're sweating your butt off."
"When I was doing it, I was First Lady, and it was when the founder of it started it in [Washington] D.C.…it was a military kind of situation," she added.

"She's been able to do some of the classes that weren't as convenient when they were in office," said her longtime personal trainer, Cornell McClellan, to People. "She can do sociable things and get outside. She loves SoulCycle."
"With [Michelle] and President Obama, we mix it up a lot," he continued, adding that the couple loved boxing. "We do things with weights, with kettlebells, with bands and tubes and TRXs to keep the body guessing."

"My whole thing is moderation. If I make good, healthy choices most of the time, then having what I love every once in a while won't hurt," Michelle told Women's Health. "I have to exercise and eat in a balanced way. If I start ignoring both, I will put on weight."
