Former First Lady Michelle Obama has been a proponent of exercise since she founded the Let's Move public health initiative in 2010, but these days she's encouraging people to stay active in a different way.

Obama posted a list of her favorite workout songs to Twitter complete with nine songs for cooling down, and the list contains songs from Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, Frank Ocean, Childish Gambino, Bruno Mars, Nipsey Hussle, and more.

Obama diplomatically included the "clean" versions of some songs that contain strong language, but come on — is anyone working out to the clean version of "Apeshit?" It's just not the same.
