Whenever Barack Obama’s name pops up in the media, it is usually about what he did as US President or what he is doing in the political space.
However, even for a man who rose to global stardom as the first African-American President of America, there is a lot more to his life than just politics.
At 61, Obama still looks very fit and that is because he trains a lot and has a workout routine, and puts in the effort to stay in good shape.
In a previous interview with Men’s Health magazine, Obama revealed that he works out for 45 minutes every day – at least six times a week.
Barack Obama’s height in meters and feet
Barack Obama’s height stands at 1.87 metres, which is also 6.14 feet. This means Obama is slightly taller than both Donald Trump and Joe Biden, the two men who became US Presidents after his term of office.
Barack Obama’s weight in KG and IBS
Barack Obama currently weighs 81 Kg. Translating that to pounds means he weighs 178.6 LBs. He has usually managed to keep his weight in check by undertaking workouts.
While the former US President struggled with quitting smoking and eating healthy, he does often train and loves playing sports, especially tennis.
In 2018, his personal trainer, Cornell McClellan, said: “He [Obama] works out as much, if not more, as [Michelle Obama]. He really believes in it. One of the things we say when people complain that they don’t have time to work out is, ‘The President of the United States works out every day! You’ve got to find another excuse.”
