What Obama listens to while doing her hardest workouts

President Obama

Michelle Obama seems to be aware of Quitters’ Day (the day Strava thinks you’ll give up your resolution) because she posted a playlist just when people needed it most. The former First Lady says that these are the songs that get her through her hardest workouts. If you’re looking for a new playlist to try, look no further.

She wrote on Instagram on Sunday, “It’s about that time when New Year’s goals and resolutions get just a bit harder to stick to. To offer a little inspiration, I want to share my go-to 2020 #WorkoutPlaylist with all of you. These songs always seem to give me that extra boost to get through my toughest workouts.”
