WATCH: News headlines today: Dec. 23, 2020

Mike Fisher has nothing but admiration for wife Carrie Underwood.

The former professional hockey player shared a thoughtful Instagram post with his half a million followers, offering them insight into how hard she works every day.

"If I had a dollar every time someone on tour said 'I don’t know how she does it' I’d be rich :)" he wrote alongside a video of the superstar singer on stage, belting out the final notes of "Cry Pretty."

Fisher, 39, reveals that while traveling the country on her "Cry Pretty Tour 360," Underwood, 36, wakes up multiple times each night to feed their 8-month-old son, Jacob, and is still up early in the morning to make sure her husband and two children have breakfast. Her morning routine continues with a 90-minute workout and soundcheck in preparation for the two-hour show, meeting with fans and press all the while -- a routine she repeats each day she's on the road.

"It really is amazing how she does it all. Hard work is more important then talent in everything and she has loads of both but the short answer of how she does it is that God’s given her a crazy voice and determination (and energy) to do what He’s called her to do!" he raved. "I love watching her do her thing and showing people the gift that God’s given her."

Underwood, who wed Fisher in 2010, continues on the "Cry Pretty 360 Tour "with Maddie & Tae and Runaway" June through Oct. 31, when it wraps in Detroit.

If I had a dollar every time someone on tour said “I don’t know how she does it” I’d be rich:) I wish everyone could see how she does it! She still gets up a couple times a night with Jacob. Wakes up and makes sure everyone is fed, then works out for 90 minutes (a workout much harder then mine) Then gets ready for the show with soundcheck etc, then meets dozen of fans,then meets radio people and then goes out and sings her heart out for 2 hours, then gets on the bus and on to the next city for a repeat. It really is amazing how she does it all. Hard work is more important then talent in everything and she has loads of both but the short answer of how she does it is that God’s given her a crazy voice and determination (and energy) to be able to do what He’s called her to do! I love watching her do her thing and showing people the gift that God’s given her. He’s the only explanation to the question “I don’t know how she does it” Philippians 4:13 For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. Ephesians 3:20 Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.
