    Have you seen us? We stay in shape by eating Cinnabon and McDonald's. It's delicious.

    The shape we stay in is round

    I enjoy progressive calisthenics or body weight exercises combined with using Bodylastic resistance bands for a decent workout. Keep the truck stocked with eggs, various forms of canned fish and moderately healthy foods. I do like to grab the the boiled eggs most truck stops seem to sell and some Odwalla chocolate protein drinks that are two for one at most Pilots right now.
     
    Dave_in_AZ and Asphalt Cowboy 33 Thank this.

    I also may have a 30 gallon trash bag full of caramel pop corn under my bunk. Asking for a sample at a factory somehow always leads to more than I could have intended.
     
    Asphalt Cowboy 33 Thanks this.
