Michelle ObamaMichelle ObamaMichelle Obama holds fitness 'bootcamps' for friends Obama marks Fathers Day: I'm most proud to be Sasha and Malia's dad Obamas invited to be honorary football coach at University of Michigan MORE fitness drill sergeant?

The former first lady says shes been hosting bootcamps for her friends to help whip them into shape and be healthy together.

Obama is seen participating in a series of workout routines in snapshots she posted on Instagram on Monday.

When I was at the White House, I often hosted bootcamp weekends for my close girlfriends, Obama, 53, wrote. It didnt matter that we were all at varying fitness levels. Our bootcamp weekends were a reminder that if we want to keep taking care of others, we need to take care of ourselves first.

And even though Im no longer at the White House, Ive continued this tradition and wanted to share some photos, Obama said in her post. My girlfriends have been there for me through all kinds of life transitions over the years including a pretty big one recently! and weve done our best to stay healthy together.

Obamas bootcamp companions include about a dozen old and new friends of varying age and fitness levels, People reported Monday.

Obama is well-known for promoting health and fitness, championing her anti-childhood obesity Lets Move! initiative as first lady.

She went tricep-to-tricep with Ellen DeGeneres in a push-up contest on Ellen back in 2012. Obamas also been eyed at a number of spinning classes around Washington over the years.

Whether its a bootcamp or a walk around the neighborhood, I hope you and your crew can find some time this summer to be healthy together, Obama wrote.

New York-based ClassPass, a virtual fitness membership network, has raised $70 million in Series C funding in a round led by Temasek. Existing investors Acequia Capital, CRV, General Catalyst, GV, M13 and Thrive also contributed to the funding, which ClassPass will use to expand operations and develop new products.

ClassPass, which was founded in 2013, uses an app to connect users to fitness classes across 39 cities worldwide. Unlike a traditional gym or fitness boutique membership which only allows members to work out at that particular gym ClassPasss membership connects users to all 8,500-plus participating fitness organizations and allows them to book classes wherever they are.

According to the companys stats, the model seems to have struck a chord with people: ClassPass lists some 35 million bookings have been made on the platform, and says it's doubled its member base in the past year. Additionally, the company has hired virtual marketplace veterans from the likes of Amazon, Expedia, Priceline and Microsoft to join their executive and board appointments.

The acceleration weve seen this year is validation that our new plan offerings and recently rolled out product features have incredible traction and engagement, said ClassPass founder and Executive Chairman Payal Kadakia said in a statement. With this new round of funding, our potential is endless as we reinvest in our core product and continue to further innovate on how we motivate people to be active.

The company has also recently invested in features to bring more people to the platform and to keep them coming back including a social network, on-demand video, and giving users the option to return to their favorite studios more often.

Im looking forward to using this new injection of funds to build on our momentum and to further deepen the technical sophistication of our platform. This year were focused on improving our customer and partner experiences while expanding into new fitness categories and audiences, ClassPass CEO Fritz Lanman said in a statement. Were aiming to become the ultimate destination for all things fitness, and this financing will allow us to accelerate our investments in market expansion and product innovation while better curating customer recommendations and increasing partner revenue.

Welcome to the latest installment of The Struggle, a series where we examine the mental-health issues that students encounter during the grueling law school experience. We are posting these stories because sometimes what law students really need is to know that theyre not alone in their pain. Sometimes what law students need is to know that theyve got a friend who is willing to share not just in their triumphs, but also in their struggles. These are real messages weve received from real readers.

If these issues resonate with you, please reach out to us. Your stories need to be heard. You can email us, text us at (646) 820-8477, or tweet us @atlblog. We will share your stories anonymously. You may be able to help a law student who needs to know that someone else has been there before and survived.

I was a non-traditional (second career) law student. I have two disabilities, PTSD (from child abuse by a parent growing up) and dyslexia. These two disabilities are difficult enough for trying to succeed in law school, but a bar exam requires much more time and effort to overcome them. However, I never failed a law school class, and I graduated with honors. I spent my last year prepping for the bar exam by reviewing 25 years of past state bar exams. I spent two full months of 14 hours a day studying for the bar exam. I passed the bar exam on my first attempt in a state that had a 58% pass rate for my seating.

Because of the character and fitness process, I have not been allowed to practice. The bar used my PTSD to claim that I challenged authority and that was not something that is allowed of an attorney.

For four years now since graduation I have been looking for employment. I cant practice law because I was denied admission. Trying to get a job in a law office with my J.D. and two LL.M.s has met with not one real interview. I have had calls talking with me about why I am not admitted to practice. Older attorneys have told me I must have a criminal record or a substance abuse issue as that is the only reason for C&F denial. When I try to say no and show them the reasons, I am now told things like, We cant use you because we dont want to be on the Bars radar. I have applied to over 2,000 jobs (not just in the legal field). I have applied to fast food jobs, retail jobs, teaching jobs, etc. Most people see my J.D. and Masters degrees and even refuse to call. I have paid to have my rsum and cover letter be professionally done, with no improvement. To make a minimum income, I have tried to go back into IT, but that effort has been met with statements like, you have been out of IT too long, or your skills are no good.

Many people tell me to just leave my J.D. and LL.M.s off my rsum and applications. The problem is that 90% of all applications are signed under penalty of perjury. So as I am still under an open character and fitness review, if I apply for a job without those degrees and a signed statement under perjury, the Bar would have a reason to keep me from practicing.

The only job I have been able to secure is substitute teaching for $80 a day. In my area, these jobs have been outsourced to a private company. So I cant even use the last two-and-a-half years to help discharge my ballooning student loan debt under public service because even though I work in K-12 schools, my employer is a for-profit outsourcing company and thus not a non-profit.

I have been battling depression on these issues, but am fearful that if I seek help it will be listed that I could not handle stress with my PTSD, and that I will be denied admission to practice when my 18-month review window is up.

When high school students ask me about my legal education, I dont hold back and I tell them. It adds insult to injury to have high school students make fun of you about not being a lawyer.

Somehow I am still fighting this. I cant afford to pay my basic bills. I cant find money for an attorney. So the feelings and emotions that I have been left with sometimes they overwhelm me. I try to do stress relief, but sometimes it feels overwhelming.

Most colleges and universities have counseling and psychological services resources that students and graduates can turn to if they are in crisis or would like counseling, even after hours. If these services are not available at your school, and if youre depressed and in need help, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (1-800-273-8255) or a lawyer assistance program in your state. Remember that you are loved, so please reach out if you need assistance, before its too late. Dont become a statistic please seek help.
