    Hey, just wondering if you guys notice any Health Clubs close to any of the truck stops.. and if you do.. What is the most available brand you have found?? I was thinking 24hour Fitness might be a way to go.

    I'm a member of anytime fitness. I read some threads on here and went with them.

    They are smaller gyms. They're franchises and a lot of smaller towns have them. It took awhile to workout the best ones to go to but after awhile I've found a ton that have truck parking either right there or very close.depending on where I'm running, I offer shower exclusively at the gym. It's worked out pretty good.

    Depending on where you run I can often which ones work the best for me in a couple areas. Mostly i10,i20, and all of texas

    Are you Otr? Regional? Run certain lanes regularly? If you have any sort of regularity to where you run you'll find it easier to find spots to hit the gym, and to figure out where you should be a member.
     
    Emgee Thanks this.

    Planet Fitness. $20 a month to use any where . Open 24 hours a day. Showers and lockers. Good equipment. Clean facilities. Located in area's where bobtail parking should not be a problem. Most have room for complete unit.
     
    Emgee Thanks this.

    I thought planet fitness took all the exercise equipment out and replaced it with nothing but treadmills and ellipticals?

    There are tractors and trailers parked daily at our Planet Fitness facility as it's in an old mall.
