Any truck driver trying to work out on the road,so much respect for them.Cauz the most of the time you don’t feel like doing nothing after a long drive.
Thank u bro... its the only thing that keeps me from going insane....
We live in nightmare! The world is going crazy
Try it at the beginning of your day. It actually improves the way you think and feel and sets a good start to your day.
I work out while fueling and in the morning not after a drive
I'm a rookie trucker and I like to see these videos and get motivate and finding new ways to workout around the truck. Heck yeah!! Thanks for the motivation!!
Kuddos to you for trying to keep yourself in shape and healthy , don’t stop for nothing , pushhh!
Thanks, brother. I’ve been looking for a way to do pull-ups in my truck.
Nice. I actually have a 2024 Peterbilt and do pullups on the lip of the top bunk. Works 👌
Gangster stuff! Good for u. Keep it up!
I’ve always wanted to do pull-ups. That’s a pretty good way to do it. I do my workout using an adjustable workout bench and two quick adjustable dumbbells.
Thanks for the work out tips bt where r u at that has u worried Abt fighting. I'm 40 nw an haven't been in a fight since I was like 15 or 16
I can tell you’ve done prison time… you’re creative and you use your surroundings to your advantage. I remember doing pull-ups off the steps to the top tier. Good video man, I’m in a cascadia as well and I will definitely be using this method.
subscribed.
I'm a truck driver as well and I respect that you workout because I take it seriously myself. Great channel
Shout out to all my fella athletes drivers
Cool I just started at a place with mostly cascadia
Pull-ups are a big part of my work out I couldn't do it in the truck, I appreciate this video bro
I need this because i have arthritis and pull ups help ease my back pain
Thanks for posting this! Bad ass. No excuses.
Hard work pays off... Loved your attitude 🙂 keep up 👍
your ah real one bro thats the kinda trucker i am going to be
Thanks. I'm honored
That’s awesome keep fighting the good fight!
I just got put into one of these Cascadias as well. I've been trying to figure out how to mount a bracket off the back of the cab that I could screw a bar into. Never thought of doing it inside. Honestly, I haven't really liked the sleeper and thought it was a big waste of space, but after watching this vid, I'm seeing a lot of new possibilities. Thanks! I'd still like to try and get my bar-mount on the back. I'd like to use it for pull ups, dips, and maybe hang a bag from it for cardio.
Let me know how your set up gose...
I used a load bar across the top shelves
Nice job Brother! That's exactly what I'm looking at for my new Freightliner. I used to have a swing out, pull up bar on my load lock rack . Just doesn't work with the new truck.
I'm glad you tested the weight for me!
Cool! Thank u
I just go to the gym on the road. I have a 45 min daily routine.
Great video man. Love your attitude. If the truck doesnt allow you to workout, you quit... that's right!!
I've been wanting to get into trucking but what's stopping me is that I wont be able to work out as well anymore. I'm afraid I'll lose a lot of muscle.
Great video man straight to the point no BS I’m gonna set this up in my team truck but it’ll put pipe straps down so it doesn’t move around when we’re driving appreciate the video brotha 💪
I'm inspired
Respect✊🏾
Been trying to figure this out and u nailed it.... Thank you... I wil try this
Any idea what the name of the thing he put under the bar is called ?
You rocking it man keep it up!!!
Thank u
Great video...Thanks and Respect
Thank you for this!
Here's a better video I made describing the set up
ruclips.net/video/W4icHROyzgM/видео.html
Solid video bro. Salute.
Absolutely Fuqn great idea for those pullups. Never even thought about this. I usually do pushups on the top bunk. And i have a upright stationary bike in the truck. Im stealing ur pullup idea😁
I do OTR and workout but I dont do pull ups; thank you for this tip
Yep. If u are doing pull-ups, nothing will stop u.....
Thank you much
Good job
🔥🔥🔥🔥thanks man!
Are there playgrounds near any of the truck stops that are walking distance?
I've known several drivers that installed something similar to this in their truck. Pull ups, push ups, squats and some power walking around the truck stop is better then nothing.
I got a bag of strength bands and a door anchor. Gym in a bag
Badass man
Hey, can I ask why do you do push ups and squats outside of the truck? Is there not enough room in the truck? Thanks in advance.
Bravo babyboi...
Thank you
Turn the heat up and go crazy working out
Nicely done! Would it help to glue the felt pads to the planks? Or even better, velcro them on both sides, and also velcro the planks contact area, and also around the bar. They sell the heavy duty velcro strips with self-adhesive tape at any Walmart, pretty much. Keep it up ! 👍
Good idea!! I think I found a dip bar that can fit in here
@@gypsyfoxx whats the name of that dip bar?
Beautiful brother I do exercises to but I run 🏃♂️ 2 hours around my truck or in any open space because it’s killing me sitting for long time and there is people just eat and sit and drive and sleep I don’t know how they do it like that do nothing only driving sometimes they do have a time but they just lazy. Keep it going brother good shit
Wow. Much respect
Good idea! Just needs some rethink
How would you improve this ?
Thanks bro I just subscribe
👌👌💯💯thank u
I just wished they made a device bar with legs on each end to prevent movement but I’m about to just make my own
Not necessary. There are so many places on the road to do pull-ups.
@rattlayitdown Playgrounds, trees, gazebos, stairs, fences, top bunk in the cab, around the trailer. Get a suspension trainer.
Dig where your heads at. Keep getting after it brother🤙 I've been looking into a good way to do pull ups in my truck. Why 7 days a week though are you working out? You look fit I'm wondering if your getting your rest day though bro
Would this work for someone who is 6’4” with some long arms? How much room do you have below your knees when your arms are extended with your wide grip?
I think if your legs are folded it would work. I could also put wooden blocks on the shelves, under the bar to raise the bar higher. I'm 5'10" and it ps high enough 4 me.
Ok so I have to figure out how to get it done in the Volvo 860
Can you do something similar for pull ups in a t680?
Not in a 2019 t680
Badass
Would a load lock work as the bar?
No. It won't
Very cool, I am a trucker also and I freaked out when I first started because I didn't know how I was gonna workout. I used rest areas for the most part and planet fitness before corona. But this is cool! Great video
Thank u. I've got a better video sowing how to install a pull up bar. And stuff about dieting and working out on the road.
@@gypsyfoxx thats great I will be sure to watch it. Many truckers need to take better care of themselves. I have a family full of them and most aren't healthy. Im going to show them your videos too.
@@truckerchickshk5751 Planet foofness is back up, right?
@@JohnSmith-pt5sg alot of them didn't close you just had to wear a mask. They have special masks for working out or you can just put it below your nose thats what I did.
@@truckerchickshk5751 Oh ok, not too bad. Do you find it easy to park at one at night?
If there's 24hr, that might work.
Brother- I do calisthenics and weight lift- I also do boxing/other forms of HIIT cardio- I’m thinking about getting my CDL as the demand for truckers is high right now- would it be possible to bring about 500lbs of weights with me including my bench/power rack set up and Olympic barbell? My health is really important to me too-
Hello sir.... there's a spot in the back, where u put load locks. U definitely could put a 45lbs bar. U could also keep a good your weight/plates in front of your passenger seat. 8 don't know about 500lbs though. Remember u have to go through scales. 500lbs could put you over and get you a ticket... I bench would be tricky. Maybe if it came apart, u could put 8t up, in your top bunk.... remember. U will be exhausted at the end of your shift, and every second counts. U have to work out, eat, and sleep.... it's not easy to do this life style while trucking, but it is possible....
You will have to get familiar with the truck, and see what u can pull off...
I have just found, that the prison workout accommodate the trucking life.
Pull-ups, dips and burpees. And a high fat high protein low carb, organic kosher diet. I include the kosher because I'm a jew....
It would be extremely hard, putting things together, like a weight bench, getting the weights out, etc.... it's possible, but that takes a lot of time.
U differently should get your CDL. try the life style. After 6 months u will know what works for u and what doesn't....
That’s a really good idea!.. What’s the length of the bar?
I'll get back to you on that. I need to get a tape measure. Give me a couple days and I'll have the exact length.
I will measure it today 4 u
I made a video, just for you that will answer all your questions
ruclips.net/video/W4icHROyzgM/видео.html
@@gypsyfoxx Thank you!
Thanks for this vid. I'm trying to get a trucking job right now and one of my biggest concerns was how I was still going to be able to do my pull-ups because they are a major part of my routine (I do them 6 days a week).
This pull-up bar makes my life a lot more bearable. Glad I could u out
Here's a better video with a lot about my pull bar. M
ruclips.net/video/W4icHROyzgM/видео.html
Elli do you know what the name of the thingy he puts under the bar is?
@@racimk5375, I don't.
you have to shower everyday lol 😂
I don't get it?? What do u mean?
What is your weight? I'm wondering if the cabinets gonna hold my 185? 🤔 Probably can use a loadbar
I'm 200. They held me at 255. They will hold u no problem
I used a load bar lol I'm about 185 I had to take out the middle locking bracket for it to fit wall to wall
Whats the length of bar..? I wana do the same
Hello sir. Give a day, and I'll get a tape measure, and get get the exact measurement for u.
Mine was in yard like 50 mins away . Otherwise I should have took the measurements. Thanks for replying sir
This guy is based
Should buy a workout machine called the rack. I don't think they make it anymore, but you can buy them on eBay.
And put it where?
Could you please help me with you diet. I barely got into trucking and I am concern about this new lifestyle.
thks a million
Paco
Yes... give me a few days, and I'll make a couple videos just for.... I'll show u what I eat, and I'll do a video on diet advice, when 2 eat, when not to eat, etc...
Also, here's my email... gypsyjew60@gmail.com
I'm giovani. I'll straighten u out....
@@gypsyfoxx Thanks a million Ill be waiting
How long have you been a truck driver man?
4 years off and one. 2 years straight without a break
The best piece of equipment for the road is a suspension trainer.
What is that??
@@gypsyfoxx What!? Go on youtube and run suspension trainer. It's a complete gym that can fit in your pocket and weights a few ounces. The perfect thing for a trucker.
@@oldnatty61 I'll definitely check it out. Thank you
@@gypsyfoxx yeah brother
@@oldnatty61 I prefer gymnastic rings but those are good too
If you'll get in a fight,just grab that bar outside your cab..Stay safe.
True true
Fucking google. I have been looking for this
✨👍✨
Good for him but I'm curious why hes Expecting to get in so many fights.
Normies! Every time I get out of my truck, i always lock horns with these but balls
Man...That looks hella dangerous.
Not at all
Get Money #fedbaby
u a gangster disciple?
Just pull a flatbed
What do u mean? Explain
You could buy a gun. That’s pretty effective at self defense
Something is wrong with you!😂
Since I have a volvo, screw it, I'm not gonna watch your video
Why are you obsessed with thinking you are gonna have to fight somebody? That’s not normal healthy thinking.
Just get some bands and get it over with
Bands are 4 pussies. obviously can't do pull-ups. Who would rather do bands over pull-ups?
Thank you for this🫡 are you still driving?
I'm starting back at the end of this month. Thanks brother
Hey I was looking at some cheap barbell options cause of the grip on the bar. Do you think I can get away with 72 inches and than put those planks down?
Or would that put too much stress on the shelves?
I’m also trying to make a y-dip bar attachment to put on my deer guards. If I figure out a good solution I’ll send you the details. Thanks big dawg
I dont fight .I carry a gun
