Turn your semi truck cab into a gym! How to install a Pull-up bar inside your freightliner!

[@richardpierrelouis6992]

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.

[@gypsyfoxx]

Thank u bro... its the only thing that keeps me from going insane.... We live in nightmare! The world is going crazy

[@sonoftexasOO]

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.

[@DoMoreEnt]

I work out while fueling and in the morning not after a drive

[@1992Xenomorph]

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!!

[@jthawk2993]

Luv seeing a solid dude get down with the business and using that peanut brain. Only one place to learn this kinda stuff. I drive a 2023 freightliner cascadia myself. Shout out from the WOODPILE. Get down homie

[@gypsyfoxx]

🤣thanks brother

[@stevopowell]

Thanks, brother. I’ve been looking for a way to do pull-ups in my truck.

[@joseanguiano7617]

Kuddos to you for trying to keep yourself in shape and healthy , don’t stop for nothing , pushhh!

[@nickolastrainer8900]

I'm a truck driver as well and I respect that you workout because I take it seriously myself. Great channel

[@YourPapiMiguel]

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.

[@aaronsmith9453]

Pull-ups are a big part of my work out I couldn't do it in the truck, I appreciate this video bro

[@cobyjohnson8842]

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

[@1724nine]

I was thinking the exact same thing. A lotta fights don’t have to go down. It’s like road ragers. It takes two to tango. You gotta be of the mind if someone disrespects you, you’re gonna deal with it. If somebody disrespects me I’m not going to fight them unless they force it. I’d rather thank God I don’t have to be like them crying over spilt milk at the drop of a hat. Let the jerks be jerks. There’s always a bigger jerk to deal with them.

[@thereviewer4173]

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.

[@wat3rmel0ns72]

I need this because i have arthritis and pull ups help ease my back pain

[@dvk7277]

Nice. I actually have a 2024 Peterbilt and do pullups on the lip of the top bunk. Works 👌

[@datswhatiwastrynatellyall7062]

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😁

[@jonblablabla1014]

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.

[@ThisOldSpartan]

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!

[@steezy7460]

I do OTR and workout but I dont do pull ups; thank you for this tip

[@gypsyfoxx]

Yep. If u are doing pull-ups, nothing will stop u.....

[@Scott_Terry]

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.

[@gypsyfoxx]

Let me know how your set up gose...

[@t.s.3669]

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 ! 👍

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.

[@mikaelson856]

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

[@oldnatty61]

Not necessary. There are so many places on the road to do pull-ups.

[@oldnatty61]

@rattlayitdown Playgrounds, trees, gazebos, stairs, fences, top bunk in the cab, around the trailer. Get a suspension trainer.

[@natee.4517]

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-

[@gypsyfoxx]

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....

[@sonoftexasOO]

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.
