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
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.
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
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 just started trucking bad this kinda stuff is gonna help me a lot, although I'm not gonna lay down on the ground at a truck stop, too much piss everywhere
Thanks for the vid. I don't drive big rigs but I do work a lot of UBER and LYFT here in Austin. And those tips of of yours is helpful even for me... Again thanks
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.
I started this week with bands iv been putting it off to long... but instead of using a outside mat, I jump up to the top bunk... I prefer not to smell the truckers parking lots, especially on hot days
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 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
Fuck man go local of you have that much experience. Maybe you can lower your expenses and can afford to invest more in your health. That is assuming your not a bitter old landwhale trying to deflect your own personal responsibility onto someone else's youth to shield yourself from self judgement..
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.
Ppl p!ss all over the parking lot at truck stops... I'm not getting down on the ground, even with a mat, because that mat has to go back in your truck... Covered in whatever was on the ground
I'm an English truck driver and I've been feeling crap for ages now, your videos have inspired me to do something about it, thank you so much 👍🙂🏃
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!"

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

The Guy's in good shape for being a truck driver

It's imperative that truckers workout everyday. Long hours sitting, eating sub-par foods.
This is what I need! I’m not sure about being on the ground of a truck stop though … LOL

Awesome
Thanks a lot HealthyTrucker.
Currently with Pam and had no clue you were too 😂 I saw Tontitown and was like “oh. Bet!”
Thanks brother
Way to go!

Santiago How tall are you?

How about a link to buy the mat.. or at least a brand so I can google it. Great video.
Good stuff!
What if it's cold out side ?
Jamar turner that’s when u get a membership
Even better... Your body does more work in that case. Lol.
What about it? Make sure there is no ice on the road, and wear your gloves and hat when you have to go outside.
I would do that in the space between the seats and bunks.
What does your diet consist of? Is there a small stove you can put in your truck?
Do u train drivers?
Do you team drive?
Curtis...you site is coming up as "Your connection is not secure"...just thought you would want to know. Thanks for putting up your videos!

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.
Great vid, but I'm not getting on that pissy ass ground!!!!

I'm a truck driver and could never touch the ground at a truck stop. Ewwww
Yeah that's nasty I just use the floor in my truck or if I'm empty I use the trailer
I'm a 20 year truck driver and I could touch the parking lot of a WalMart or somewhere else. It is always much cleaner.
Yup nothing like laying down on an urin covered lot or opening my door for all the bugs to creep into my rig...
Try again
you might want to have TRX strap
How someone didn’t piss on that parking spot recently 🥴

Charles Hanna well that’s depressing.

That was dumb my man
@@darrenallen2399 if that sounded dumb to you it's because you are dumb

Yeah... I'd tap that.
This guy clearly isn't a truck driver, or he would never get down on the ground in a truck stop parking lot. Even with a mat!
Lol well his website is shut down, he hasn't made a video in 5 years.. I'm betting my money on a career change 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
healthytrucker does not respond. Not really a trucker. Look at the dates. FInd what works for you.
What the hell is that! Guys look goofy as hell working out on the piss parking lots. Get a black membership at planet fitness for cryin out loud!
