Newbie here.
Is it possible to hit gym still while out on the road? GYM= meaning like a true weight room like Golds Gym, 24 Hour fitness, LA Fitness, etc?
I would love to hit the gym every now and then, plus they have showers.

Be nice if the terminals had a gym.

Going to be very difficult to do this. I have heard that some larger companies have small gyms at their terminals, not sure how often you would be able to get into them though.
I carried a set of dumbells, pvc push up handles, and those forearm/hand exercisers that fit in your hand and squeeze (can't remeber what they are called) -
There are gyms all over the country and most are accesible in a big truck, I personally carry weights in the truck and workout every morning first thing regardless to where I am or what I'm doing. The first hour of everyday is mine. If you're so busy that you can't give yourself 1hr out of 24hrs to do something good for yourself than somethings wrong.
I normally make it to a gym about 3 to 4 days a week. Theres no substitute for the feeling that I get from moving heavy steel and a good cardio session. Oh,yeah the sauna and the swimming pools are nice too. Most gyms wiil charge you 10 to 15 bucks a day depending on how nice they are. It's a small price to pay for an excellent workout. Good luck.Splenda Thanks this. -

Yeah I was wondering that same thing. Im guessing it would be a huge pain in the neck to find gyms and get to them with a truck. I will probably pick up a set of those adjustable dumbells and a good set of running shoes. If you are creative enough you can find lots of things that work. That is.. for the people who are willing to drag their butts out of the truck.

are you kidding? why do you think so many drivers are sloppy fat? even if you had a gym attached to the back of your truck, when would you use it? you're going to be working 12-16 hours a day! -
