4. She Does Tabata Workouts
The singer does a lot of Tabata workouts, including pushups and planks with chest taps, Erin revealed to PureWow.
"We've been able to keep her on track with the crazy schedule she's had over the last couple years. Some workouts that we've loved doing that can be done on the bus are Tabatas. I also love turning fitness into a game because why not make it fun but still challenging," Erin shared, adding, "Tabatas are a four-minute workout that involves 20-second bursts of exercise followed by 10 secs of rest for 8 rounds. You can do so much with it."

6. She Consumes a Balanced Diet
Balance is something Kacey truly values when it comes to her eating regimen.
"It is torture sometimes trying to eat healthy on the road, but I try my best. It's all about balance and still letting my tastebuds enjoy themselves. If there's a reason to celebrate or I'm somewhere that has some kind of food that I know I won't be able to resist, then I try to eat lighter all around that. Also, I try to eliminate carbs and most processed foods," the singer shared, via Women's Health.
7. She Limits Alcohol
In addition to helping Kacey with her workout regimen, Erin helps the singer optimize her healthy eating habits. One thing she advises Kacey, and all her clients, to do is limit alcohol.
"I'm not saying you can drink as much alcohol as you want, but I try to limit them to two drinks a week, which a lot of people are like, 'Oh jeez! I need wine every night, that's bologna!' But literally you can do that," Erin told UsWeekly.
