Russels on I40 x 369. Never stopped there before and was real happy to find the treadmill. Set it up at 12% incline 3.5 mph 45min... good workout.
They also have a classic car museum that had me drooling.
Found a T/S with a treadmill & elliptical!

Wow, have stopped there a few times and been thru the museum. Never knew they had a place to workout. I do miss my gym membership and my body sure knows it. The elliptical was my frenemy! I wish more places would have a workout room, even if they didn't have but those 2 pieces of equipment in it. I've got my stuff downloaded on my computer, but modifying for the small truck space is a pain and I sure as heck am NOT getting outside of my truck to do it. Never know what has been on the ground around truck parking. I have opened one of my empty trailer doors when it's not so hot or if I have a reefer I'll turn it on (shhh, don't tell) and done my workout in there as well.

there was talk on the evan lockridge show last year, that gyms would be popping up. they're supposedly already under construction. don't remember which locations though.

Check out this clip of what they are starting in europe. Guys, watch until the end and you'll thank me. Even if the equipment is boring, don't miss part 2 and 3...

.HalpinUout and dieseltrooper Thank this. -
Outstsnding! We need that for sure. I do look for rest areas that have playground equip. There is one on us287 between Amarillo and Wichita Falls for example.

That's a pretty good workout for not doing it on a daily basis... I'm currently on a leave of absence from OTR for a family issue so I am able to work out on a normal schedule at my local gym... I'm at the max on the incline which is 15.0 and I'm currently at 4.6 mph... I do it for 1 hour and it brings me close to 5 miles with around 900 calories burned according to the machines readout. I wear a skull cap along with a hooded sweat shirt when I work out, I love sweating while doing an intense workout, feels great... I've always wanted to stop at russels just never worked out time wise, how it the workout area they offer?.. All the TA's that have workout rooms have ellipticals... I'm not a fan of TA but ill use the workout rooms...

WHats wrong with walking or jogging around the truck stop or near the truckstop? I generally jump on google earth to check the area Im in and go from there... Rural farm areas are the best cause there is no traffic and the locals almost always wave...

She could be my workout partner in many ways any day of the week...

The two pieces are set in a hallway by tv room and bathrooms.

Because I don't like the comments I hear from the male drivers or being stared at.
