    LOL i didnt want to go there fortycalglock, Silverdrifter and the OP seem positive and in their eyes everything may unfold exactly how they envision.

    Silverdrifter- Absolutely you will be able to get in a 1/2 hour workout --but i know what Fortycalglock is saying, and you will too after you start driving.
    Normal time as you know it is going to change -- I cant explain it, you just have to experience it and figure out what to do with it.

    Get a memebership with la fitness ..if u like driving northeastern routes like Pennsylvania. Indiana. Ohio.illinios.Missouri. new jersey.north carolina.even in florida and Texas youll definitely find one ..i should know because i have been to all of those and always found a way to park in the gym usually along the building or in back of it just make sure ur tandems are all the way to the front ...its a great place to take ur 10 hour break maybe even ur 30 minute instead of having a hard time to find a spot at a truckstop ..just make sure u tell ur the manager of its cool to keep ur truck over night they should be fine with it since ur a membership ..plus the gyms have suana and a pool to relax and great free weights to lift heavy or just do a simple jog on the treadmill and you get to see some fine ### ladies in their lol ...just remember always have an exit strategy before u decide to go in the gym during day times dont want to get stuck cause some member decided to block u while ur still on the clock

    Bring it with you. I seen a kllm driver break out his weight bench right in front of his truck. He had the entire set and dumbells to go with it. The sight of that was ridiculous. Really? I thought id seen most things on the road.

    Easy? Obviously you do not know. And as for your back exercise it's deadlifts. It adds the solid thickness like no other exercise. But skip them. Doesn't bother me.
