(AUDIO) THOMAS RHETT GETS PUNCHY WITH HIS TOUR MATES

Thomas Rhett is out on his first headlining tour, The Home Team Tour, and Kelsea Ballerini, who is one of his openers, says the workouts on his tour are tough.  But Thomas says, “Kelsea’s in such good shape. I mean I brought a boxing coach out on the road and so she was working with my boxing coach here in town and now we all kind of box together on the road.  It’s pretty hilarious.”

Thomas has posted pictures of some of his intense workouts on social media, including one exercise where he was doing pull ups while his boxing coach punched him in the stomach to strengthen his core.  But all that working out ensures that he will have the stamina to perform his hits like his latest single, “Craving You,” plus “T-shirt,” “Star of the Show,” “Crash and Burn” and other uptempo numbers in his set.
