She maintains a regular exercise routine: Let's face it, the country crooner is young and has good genes on her side, but she definitely recognizes the health benefits that come from exercise. To keep her stamina up on stage, she makes a point to run every day, "For me, working out is not so I can get skinny. It's so that I'm not panting on stage."
