Delhomme, Contributing Columnist As many photos of have shown, President Barack Obama is in great shape for an almost 50 year old man. What is his workout? Mangoboss has culled facts from all available public sources (eye witnesses of reporters, statements of friends and published interviews) to ascertain what the President’s workout looks like. How Often Does President Obama Workout Obama works out six days a week. His workouts usually starts early in the mornings . Self-described as naturally "a skinny kid ", Obama was actually a chubby kid, as photos attest. Perhaps for that reason, Obama has become a devotee of personal fitness, faithfully attending to his personal fitness before he hits the paperwork. How Obama Divides Up Cardio and Weights Obama usually works out for 90 minutes (the same length of First Lady Michelle Obama's workout), focusing on both cardio and strength training. He spends half his time on weights and half his time on cardiovascular training. He warms up and cools down also. His Gear Obama works out using standard gear— gray t-shirt, black running pants, Asics sneakers, white head phones. Weights For weights, when he’s in Chicago, he uses about 12 machines at a private gym at Regents Park, a luxury condominium where his friend Michael Signator has an apartment on the 18th Floor overlooking Lake Michigan. Sweet. The machines he uses have not been fully reported but he uses free weights of 40 pounds for tricep presses. He also does 80 pound calf raises, stepping up on the high bench. He does a heavy set rotation of shoulder presses and dumbbell extensions . He works his triceps hard, using standing weighted tricep pulls. He does standing tricep push downs, elbows tight to his hips, 40 pound weights. He does lying dumbbell presses, 15 pound weights. The man identified by People magazine as his trainer, Reggie Love, is a former Duke University basketball player and is almost always at his side. Once when he worked out at the Dupont Circle Washington Sports Club, he was observed by reporter David Paul Kuhns, speaking to another trainer, an African American male, who told Obama his father would be proud of him. Obama nodded, smile and said “I wish I had time for a trainer”. When Obama works out he follows a prescribed workout on a piece of white paper, which Reggie holds. Cardiovascular Training For cardio, Obama hits the stationary bicycle,elliptical machine treadmill and he plays basketball. He works at an intensity that produces a heavy sweat. Even Obama's closest friends said they marvel at how he has maintained his commitment. He went to Regents Park at 9 a. m. the day after his victory rally in Grant Park, on Thanksgiving Day and hours before traveling to Washington for his first tour of the White House. On Friday, Obama rushed to the gym before boarding a plane for his 12-day stay in Hawaii. He woke up the next morning on vacation, went to a gym and exited 45 minutes later in a sweat- soaked gray shirt. When he moves into the White House, Obama plans to use the basketball court, and may even expand the facilities, according to published sources. Sweet. The results are clearly worth it. His chest and abs appear far more chiseled in December (the top photo where he is wearing shades) than they did just 4 months earlier in August in the smaller photo. The bigger question reporters were asking is how some one got that close to snap a photo of the incoming President. "In our parlance, we would say he gave it up. That's the expression in the business. That he gave up the picture," said Frank Griffin, of Bauer Griffin LLC, the photo agency that snapped the pictures.
