Inside Kelsea Ballerini’s No-BS Workout Hacks

Another singer swears she’s cracked the code on effortless workouts—how novel. Kelsea Ballerini, now Celsius’s shiny new ambassador, dished her so-called “clever” fitness shortcuts in an exclusive chat with E! News, and surprise, none involve starched kale or dawn-breaking spin classes. According to the “Cowboys Cry Too” crooner, when she was touring, her iron-clad rule was sleep—catching shut-eye was her MVP because, as she put it, “if I didn’t get enough, I was not a person the next day.” Groundbreaking, right? She capped her nightly arena strolls in ankle weights, guzzled her brand-new Celsius energy drink, and strolled all the way to the nosebleed seats to watch the crew dismantle her stage. Talk about fitness theater.
Now that tour life is ancient history (she wrapped in April), Kelsea’s pivoted to a Pilates routine and embraces what she calls an 80/20 lifestyle: eighty percent mental health, relationship TLC, balanced meals and movement, and the remaining 20 percent pure hedonism—like ordering a tennis racket because she’s never tried it but thinks it’ll “rock her world.” Her logic: if you’re already plotting your next Netflix binge-session, why not fling yourself at a yellow ball first?
But wait, the celebrity fitness train doesn’t stop there. Kaley Cuoco, eight months into postpartum life, swears by cranking her treadmill incline for cardio and circulation perks—bonus backward walking to torch glutes and legs, according to her Today.com chat. Becky G, fresh off a transformative 2023, credits consistency—stretching, strolls, or home workouts—as the key to “living longer with a healthy habit” in her E! News reveal. Kelly Clarkson took New York’s concrete jungle as her gym, adding infrared sauna sweats and a cold plunge (because peer pressure works wonders), as told to People Magazine. And Julianne Hough refuses to miss dog-walking hill sprints—because if her pup doesn’t get a workout, neither does she—plus mix-and-match classes like Pilates or a Kinrgy sweat session for variety.
Even behind the scenes, record producers are sneaking in fitness: one tells Us Weekly that daily golf rounds double as cardio, since he hops off his cart to answer emails and break a sweat. Real talk: call it creative, call it gimmicky, but at least they’re moving.
So there you have it—your cheat sheet to celeb-approved exercise from sleep hacks and ankle weights to cold plunges and dog jogs. Nothing shocking here, folks. Let’s all act surprised. And that’s today’s dose of reality. You’re welcome.
