Pickler, who relies on Rockin' Refuel to provide her with the protein she needs to stay fit while on tour, is the first personality from the entertainment world to join the team.

Loved by country music fans for her chart topping music as well as her spunky and charismatic personality, Pickler caught the attention of the entire nation in 2013 when she won a prime time celebrity dance competition. She recently launched her latest album, The Woman I Am, to great critical success and kicked off her 2014 tour schedule in January.

"I drink Rockin' Refuel's lean line of drinks because they have the perfect amount of protein that I need to refuel after a workout with fewer calories, plus they taste great," said Pickler. "Staying in shape while on the road touring isn't easy but it's essential when you're performing every night, so I make sure my tour bus is always stocked before we head out."

Pickler is the latest addition to Team Rockin' Refuel, joining football star Patrick Willis, professional basketball player Deandre Jordan, elite triathlete T.J. Tollakson and professional lacrosse player Brendan Mundorf. As a Team Rockin' Refuel member, she will be featured in a national campaign for Rockin' Refuel's lean product line, and will be partnering with fellow team members on upcoming social media activations.

"Like our professional athletes, she understands that staying healthy and fit requires the right amount of daily protein to keep her muscles and body in shape. And our lean line of protein beverages, with their fewer calories and carbs, are geared more towards active females so she's a perfect fit."
