    Resistance bands are an excellent workout. I also carry dumbbells in my truck.

    What if other truckers laugh at you saying: "Haha, look at him, exercising on his truck, eating healthy and shit!"

      What if you don't care what others are saying? At the end of the day is not you that permanently carries the big belly being a dumb self-hater turning out to hate others as well because they do things differently and making progress :)

      Haha they definitely will but like Nikolay said you’re still the one who benefits... truck stops are weird cause as Truckers go in and out of the building back to their trucks they’re looking at everything so everyone would stare at you. But it’s almost like a performance or a busker on a sidewalk. It would be funny to put a little tip jar sauce guys walk by staring at you they might put a couple dollars in

      If your worried about someone talking you down let them, there not the ones who is going to go through the health issues if you don’t work out. People hate and just because %70 of truck drivers don’t workout doesn’t mean you can’t be part of the %30

      The market is responding to the health needs of truckers. Truck stops look like Whole Foods nowadays, lol. You'll be fine. :)

      Last time I was on the road, I will do what can to get a good workout in like walking around the parking lot of truck stops for a good 30 to 40 minutes. I like this trucker, I want to exercise as much as I can a day. If other truckers have a problem with that, oh well.

    It's imperative that truckers workout everyday. Long hours sitting, eating sub-par foods.

    Beautiful great job man! I know truck drivers make a lot of money but without your health it doesn't mean anything! Wouldn't you want to be around to see your grandkids grow up and do wonderful things

    • @davidrogers6287
      @davidrogers6287 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You think truck drivers make a lot of money! Not otr drivers. You only get paid when you are moving, the other 10 to 14 hours you get nothing yet you are still responsible for the truck. It's has to be the only job in the world where you work and don't get paid.

    I really enjoyed the video! I started driving in 2010 and promised myself that if I got to 200 lbs I would quit and lose the weight, or make a commitment to stay a trucker and be healthy! I'm currently at 190lbs, I was 196 in 2010 but I've been up and down on the weight since I don't really exercise year round. But I did a 6 month challenge last year and it brought me down to 180, had never seen that weight since I was in high school. Now I want to get back in track, I've always carried a set of Dumbbells, bands, and a jump rope. So starting tomorrow I'll begging with the running and by Monday I will start weight lifting and doing some jump rope. My goal is to go down to 175 lbs, and your video just gave me that last boost of inspiration I needed! Stay fit DRIVER.

    Don't ever count your reps. Do exercises with correct form, until you get to that rep where you feel your muscles start to fail and quiver a little as you do it, then try to do 2-5 more depending on exercise and how many sets in you are. ive had good success doing it like this it takes some of the thinking out.
    if anyone has any ideas of incorporating pull ups let me know

    I know the videos old but it's all about the food you eat. Eliminate simple carbs and sugary drinks will go along way in deflating the spare tire.

    I like to exercise in my truck except for jogging. Would never keep my door open for all the flies to join me for a 12 hour ride. Plus, parking lots are full of pee, grease, and detritus of all forms and varieties. You also could get run over by a supertrucker.

    As a truck driver enjoy your the health of your youth !
    Now you are young and have not endured decades of being over worked and sleep deprivation from being in a truck 24/7 for months at a time
    Eventually the accumiliative effects of driving and the non recooperative sleep will get to the point where you will only have the energy to exercise or drive
    Right now it is all good because you are still young and recover from the harmful effects quicker
    one day you will choose to just drive with the energy that you have left , because exercising doesn't pay the bills

      This absolutely is a depressing outlook. You work out young so that you can continue to workout while you are old. Its a marathon, not a sprint. Maybe, you shohld not overwork yourself and sleep deprive yourself for a job. Focus on yourself and put yourself in situations to make sure you can enjoy life. Dont waste away working just because of the money otherwise you end up like this guy who im replying to.
