Too fat or injured

And for your area, if you want to sit on your ###, intermodal is always busy, all year long. Maybe like a JB Hunt dedicated.

 

Another tip on the weight thing. Watch your soda intake if your a soda drinker, or beer if your a beer drinker. Soda will put on the lbs, an same with cheap beer.

Wife wanted to lose some weight a couple years back. So she quit drinking soda. Now mind you she only drank 1 or 2 20oz soda's a day. She cut back to having just 1, 1 day a week. She lost about 20lbs from just stopping the soda everyday. Lost more when she kept it up an traded the soda a day to water instead.

Me? I still drink my soda, but I burn a lot of calories doing what I do day in an day out.

Walk around what the truck?If so you have to when doing pretrip.How about dollying up and down the trailer or opening and closing the trailer doors,can you do that?Its all part of the job.I do understand driving truck is what you wanna do but you must be able to perform every part of the job that's required.

 

Then you don't want package delivery, especially in the anthill. Don't be afraid of driving class A vehicles especially if you aren't doing LTL delivering inside the city.

Look at tanker, intermodal, line haul, yard jockey, the kinds of driving where you take a truck from a truck place to a truck place. It will keep you off of the little, crowded streets filled with people. And you won't have to hand carry or stack your cargo.

If you want out of the city, look for regional and OTR jobs that will get you running out of the anthill and will get you a chance to see what the country looks like. You'll get to meet people and figure out that it's not like what the media and politicians tell you it is. It'll give you a chance to clear your mind.

If you want to do this it's time to get a little brave.

 

Linehaul is about as sedentary as it gets but if you have weight issues you will certainly balloon. I see one guy who had to quit as he went from 240 to 380 in five years on his 5'2" frame. Could no longer pull himself into the cab so he switched to driving a bus,,,yep, swelled up like a sick puppy and rolling down the road with a busload of passengers.

 

Sedentary isn't good. But it shouldn't be the problem it is.
Body builders thrive on rest. A little hint there...
We have no idea how to take care of ourselves well. There is no reason to balloon up in truck driving. There is a renaissance of sorts, developing in health care. Please look at the stuff in this thread I posted on health. At the very least. Watch those videos Dr. John Bergman put on youtube. You'll be amazed. On Health... the right way....

I've done it before. I feel so sorry for people. They eat and eat and eat. Their body is pleading for nutrition. There is little to no nutrition in what they're eating. It's junk, it's toxins, it's killing them. All they do is put on weight. The established Medical Care community doesn't care about you. The just want to fill you with more toxins they call drugs. The food industry doesn't care either. They're providing genetically modified toxins. Meat with drugs shot into it to force them to grow insanely fast. It's bad! Go... and learn! Start with that stuff on the thread I posted.

 

That s good you'll be able to do what is required.Its all easy routine once you get the hang of it.
