Thanks a lot for this, as a truck driver, working out is a huge challenge, and the environment is limited, but there is always a solution, thanks for this one!.
Awesome. I was looking for ideas on what do in the truck as far as a workout. I was in the Army for a bit then got out and unloaded trucks at walmart so working out has been apart of my life for the last 5 years. Now that I'm a steering wheel holder, I don't really work out much except for raising and lowering the landing gear. Thanks a lot Prime!
It was warm today so I did banded bench press and air squats 30 reps total. Banded bicep curls and step ups 20 reps total. Being 6’3’’ 380 I don’t think I will be doing much in the truck... :)
Ya if I was solo I'd be doing this. But as a team driver if the truck is stopped my co driver is probably sleeping/ in the way. I had a bike but it was getting ruined by all the salt/dirt when it was on the back of the truck so I took it off
We also have room for kettle bell swings guys, I love swinging a 35-50 pound kettlebell in there. If you do enough you feel like you just went for a run lol. Plus you can squat them lift them around and whatever, kettlebells!

Unfortunately this is not possible in a lightweight lol. I'd love to see you post a video on what we are supposed to do. In the meantime I guess I'll just be sticking to the old thermals and working out in 20 degree weather just because I'm personally motivated enough to do that but it would be nice to see exercises that are possible to do in a lightweight truck
Totally agree. We'll be doing videos soon for workouts you can do as a team driver, lightweight driver, and more. So stay tuned for those. Keep up the good work lifting outside. It's not ideal but at least you're moving still. Nice work.
I have a lightweight and you could still do exercise inside such as the pushups if you lift the mattress as in the video . I have three routines that I do. Routine 1( chest/triceps and traps) 4 sets each to failure -push ups -shoulder shrugs (30lbs dumbells in each hand) - tricep push down ( using a resistance band over my driver side mirror) Routine 2(lats/ biceps) 4 sets -one arm dumbbell row (use the bed as a bench) -resistance band lat row (There's a piece of metal inside the light weight trucks that you could pass the resistance band through to do the lat rows) -seated bicep curls Routine 3( quads/ abs) 4 sets -goblet squats ( you can only do these in a light weight truck if you have your passenger seat removed) -bicycle crunches (you can do these on top of the mattress)
Wow that is really cool, when I first started over the road I was really worried about exercising. I found my own tricks like rest areas. And luckily planet fitness started popping up everywhere. But I love this wish I seen this video when I first started!
I feel stupid! Lol 😅. I honestly never even thought about removing the mattress like that. I've been trying to fit myself on the floor in a cramped space between 2 seats trying to do push ups . Lol
@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING We can make a sit up A squat A curling machine. All done by a motor The person just puts their body part in and the machine does the rest
Lol it's gonna be sauna by the time your done lol. I know because I spent the entire winter working out in the truck.. windows lookin like titanic an sh*t lmao
Or middle aisle do 100 push up for pete fifty rest then fifty. Then I do situps on the edge of the bed 30 reps. Dumbells 20 switch hand 20 switch hand. Then back of your head 10 . Then situps on your bed. Call it a night lol.
All that can be done outside of your truck my friend there's no need to be ashamed of ourselves working out outside of a truck ask. FFF haters you'll have to be stuck inside of your truck doing those kind of exercises
Definitely no reason to be ashamed! We shared these workouts inside the truck to show what your options are when it's either not ideal weather-wise outside or the driver can't leave or doesn't maybe feel safe to leave their truck in an area .
The problem with this is that truck driver's store stuff at the foot and head of their bed because there's not a lot of room in there and it would be a massive hassle to Move everything and pull your bed up every single day to workout,, they're not gonna do that.
Great feedback! Matt and the Driver Health and Fitness team keep that in mind when planning workouts for drivers. Typically, both the in truck and out of truck workouts require little to no equipment for workouts. Several of the options are available in the company store are designed with the driver in mind, so they don't take up a ton of room.
1. Remaking your bed takes literally 5 seconds… 2. You lift the mattress up so in reality its not like you’re taking your sheet off or anything. 3. Your food is stored in your cabinets or under your bed, both of which have nothing to do with the workout included. Stop making excuses bud.

I never thought of what he just did. Well, I have zero excuses not to work out now.
It's definitely a small space, but you can make it work. :)
Excellent job! I have a condo but this encouraged me to workout on my truck more. No excuses! Thanks again!

There is a guy on youtube who installed pull up bar inside freightliner, search on youtube. Really helpful
That sounds like a great addition to the truck!

I love that this is just 5 minutes. At the end of the day, Im usually really tired, but I can do 5 minutes of exercise.
That's 5 min. to do 10 of each one. Then do 9 and then 8 and so on.

Fred F. I have way too much stuff to lift my bed lol. I can’t even walk in my truck. I have to climb strategically.
Crystal Samarrippas lol i would suggest watching some youtube videos on minimalism (especially if you're in a light weight truck)

Hi Robert! Thanks for watching. We hope this helps!
The cold is good for fat burning when you shiver you burn calories
Love it thank you

you should put a 400 lbs lift on the side of trucks that uses a battery and it electrically makes truckers do squats, squats are the most imporant
Thanks for the feedback.

I need outta the truck, had enough. Need a normal job and a personal trainer lol
Yeah I wanna work out and then have to remake my bed 🤦🏻🤦🏻 Plus who’s truck is that empty inside? The guy that doesn’t eat and shower?
There are many creative ways to work out on or off the truck. For more tips, you can contact Driver Health & Fitness!
1. Remaking your bed takes literally 5 seconds… 2. You lift the mattress up so in reality its not like you’re taking your sheet off or anything. 3. Your food is stored in your cabinets or under your bed, both of which have nothing to do with the workout included. Stop making excuses bud.
This definitely wouldn't work for us teams.
Bull. You can do them outside the truck also...
You’re in an EMPTY TRUCK smh my mattress is heavy and we practically live in it
Totally understandable. Matt does have a few great videos of workouts outside of the truck. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving! Safe travels.
He said "pyramid scheme" 🤔🤔😂😂
Powerful We thought that was funny too! It is also referred to as a ladder workout sometimes.
Obviously not a Driver
