    Here's a typical exercise room that a lot of TA's & Petro's have. This one is at a TA.

    Here's some hearty soup you can get at the same place, all you can eat for $4.

    After tossing 48000 pounds of cider in cases into your trailer and then from big wood onto small wood off the trailer you still wanna hit the gym? More power to you.

    You won’t be able to at first but after a while, once you get in the groove you’ll know how to plan a trip so you can get to a gym along your way.
    I once met a driver that lived Starbucks and would plan where he parked and took his break so that a Starbucks would be near him when he woke up

    So almost every day the gym you were signed up with just happened to be on your route, and just happened to have a way for you to legally park your truck, and you just happened to have the time and energy to get a full workout in? Almost every day???

    Yeah okay buddy. Sure you did.

    You can only legally work 14 hours so that leaves plenty of time to lift. Of course you’re tired but you still go do it. That’s the difference in people who go to the gym 4-5x a week and those who don’t. It’s a priority over sleep and whatever else they got going on.

    People act like in shape people don’t work, nah everyone is busy. You just do it and don’t make excuses.

    Maybe take a kettel bell with you. Great workout. This is my plan anyway once I pass the test.
