Thinking about em. Don't wanna down grade

That's interesting, cause I always that flatbedding is one the most physical jobs around. And I do agree with you giving that driver advise to move on

 

Only line of trucking work that will keep you in shape that I know of is the food service end like Hogan or Sysco do. Otherwise, you need to watch what you eat and take time to actually get some exercise.

You're doing the right thing asking about what's going on at Melton. Hope it works out for you.

 

When I did Otr I would stop in at a planet fitness if possible. Become a black card member you can stop in at any pf.

Watch your diet. Buy a case of Poland Spring 24 pack a week. Drink at least 2 a day.

Avoid like the plague loves and pilots fried crap esp the pizza.

 

Staying in shape OTR isn't nearly as hard as people make it out to be. Just gotta have some discipline. Don't eat at truck stops/restaurants, buy healthy food at a Walmart (or whatever grocery store you can get to), and do calisthenics/walk/run around parking lots/towns whenever possible. I used to do just that and lost a few pounds in the 6 months I was otr.

 

700 per week gross?Thats a joke move on!As far as staying in shape run ltl reefer pulling pallets off trailer and breaking them down you'll get good exercise.
