Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos
Watch a funny video of Mark Consuelos bench-pressing his wife Kelly Ripa on Live! With Kelly and Michael on Thursday, April 2.

The couple that works out together, stays together! Kelly Ripa's husband Mark Consuelos continued guest co-hosting Live! With Kelly and Michael on Thursday, April 2, where he showed off his impressive fitness skills — with the help of some light (wife!) weights.

Consuelos, 44, was challenged to partake in First Lady Michelle Obama's #GimmeFive challenge, and opted to bench-press his tiny wife.

In the amazing clip, Consuelos lays down on a bench before a cheering audience. His wife then leans over her husband, who hoists her up with his muscular arms. Ripa, in a sweater and pencil skirt, grips her husband's one arm as he effortlessly completes the challenge with five reps.

Viewers immediately took to Twitter to discuss the adorable couple moment.

The couple married in 1996, and share three kids, Michael, 17, Lola, 13, and Joaquin, 12. Ripa told her BFF Andy Cohen last December what makes their marriage of nearly 20 years work.

"There's no secret! We just like each other a lot," the sunny host said. "I really — I love my husband. I think he's awesome. We've been together a long time and we try to do spicy things together all the time."
