Carrie Underwood doesn’t put pressure on herself to exercise.
The country star tells People she works in her workouts around being a mom to 2-year-old Isaiah.
“It just happens if and when it happens,” Carrie recently revealed at her CALIA by Carrie Underwood Summer Kick-Off event in Malibu. “I’ve gotten a lot better at doing what I can when I can, but also cutting myself a little slack. You have to!”

A spare 20 minutes goes a long way for Carrie, who says she can “can do something” active in that time frame.
“Sometimes I’m like, my workout today is going be running around after my kid. If we’re going to go to the park, why not run there and push him in the stroller? Then I get a good cardio session to and from, and then he gets to play, so everybody wins.”
One thing Carrie wants her fans to know about her workout regimen is that she’s only able to make time for herself when her family is on board.
