Here's Why Carrie Underwood Goes Thru Those GRUELING Workouts!
Carrie Underwood doesn't JUST work out to look good and feel good, she does it for you. She pushes herself in the gym, so she doesn't run out of steam in the middle of a concert.
She tells "People", quote, "I'm a very physical performer in that I feel like I use my whole body to sing. I don't sing easy songs, and I don't want to. So I have to keep up with myself.
"I have to make sure that I can give the fans the best show that I possibly can and feel good doing it. I don't want to feel exhausted when I get off stage. [I] want to be ready for it, and I want to be able to give it my all."
Carrie's in such good shape that her warm-up is 15 minutes on the treadmill . . . and then she kicks it into gear. According to her trainer, she does full-body workouts that include, among other things . . . squats, deadlifts, pushups, and pull-ups.
