Carrie Underwood’s Son Helps Her Workout

Finding the perfect workout partner can be tough. Ideally, you’d want someone that could keep up with your pace, make you laugh and motivate you to do better. Well, although he can’t vocalize those encouraging words just yet, Carrie Underwood seems to have found the perfect solution— working out with baby!

New parents struggling to find their work-life balance often wonder how they could possibly make time for the gym. While it’s essential for new moms like Carrie to take care of themselves both during pregnancy and after giving birth, it’s often hard to find time to leave your baby’s side. Luckily, with Carrie’s latest workout routine, you won’t have to.

Earlier today, the actress and country music star shared a video of her workout with 9-month-old son Isaiah on Instagram. Underwood got her unique cardio fix for the day as she cradled her son to her chest while doing squats in printed leggings from her new fitness line, CALIA by Carrie.

“Sometimes we just have to make it work!” she captioned the photo, standing in solidarity with busy moms of the world. She also gave us some great parenting fitness hashtags to use in the future, such as  #trainingwithbaby and #fitmom.

An hour into their workout, Carrie posted another Instagram photo with her muscle-man-in-training. Looks like Isaiah is a big fan of stretching!

Underwood captioned her latest gym trend: “When your post-workout stretch turns you into a human jungle gym…”

Life as a new parent certainly seems to be going well for this multi-tasking super mom. Thanks for the inspiration, Carrie!
