why i quit otr trucking

[@SouthernArawak]

I've never one time eaten out of the truck stop. Since day one I've always ordered GROCERIES from Instacart or Whole Foods delivery via Amazon. I'm a raw vegan and I still eat that way even on my two-three month stretches otr. Only drink distilled water which comes in with the grocery orders I place and they always bring it right to the truck just put your truck description and parking location in the order details and they'll bring it to you. Be smart out here truckers! Be healthy.

[@brittneywilliams2730]

How is that smart? Just go to Walmart

[@SouthernArawak]

@@brittneywilliams2730 its smart because some of us are smart enough not to eat from Walmart. Do you though.

[@Whoisderon]

Smart and healthy asl

[@g5wagon]

TB you are speaking the truth about weight gain and body changes. I'm not a trucker but I'm a 3rd shift corrections officer who is dealing with a lot of what you speak of. I'm addressing my issues and I hope your trucker brothers are listening to what you are sharing with them.

[@karaskmt5493]

U shouldn't be having any soda at all. Maybe one a year... Truckers need to demand better food at the truck stops....And also they should be taking walks ...

[@demetriuswilliams5620]

I’m already looking at buying some land in the country, and putting a tiny as home on it one bedroom. Never getting caught up in paying a 30 year mortgage.

[@hwyjourney7774]

Same here

[@Cato5_0]

What's up TB? been supporting you since your container days. Your absolutely right in this vlog. I was OTR for 7 yrs, stopped to do carhauling regionally for the past 2 yrs,and I went from 198lbs to now 185lbs just off that decision alone and it has saved my life. I make more money and I'm able to get by doctors a lot more to maintain my health. Every driver will come to the cross road of money or health, I advise you all choose your health EVERYTIME.

[@GhostruckerX]

Losing weight definitely is hard OTR but not impossible but it will take some sacrifice. I lost 50 pounds on keto combined with the portable x ciser which is a portable stepper 45 mins of burst training 3 times a week burns calories up to 48 hours which is what I recommend.

[@daverrisculpepper2334]

TB they not listening, I been OTR for 8 years plus. I get out my truck and workout 💪 everybody looking at me mad....

[@galatrax1181]

Gained 15lbs first two years Otr now I’m local maintaining my weight past two years no weight gain local fuel hauler 1600-1800 gross a week home every day off two days

[@tunedcreations1815]

They don't understand that 23hr lock down on wheels

[@lsx2ss]

Man there were so many gems dropped. As a rookie in the trucking industry these streams are so dope and informative. As an intellectual I can also appreciate the different topics as well. Looking forward to the next one bro, keep dropping knowledge ✊🏿🔥🔥

[@ewilliams466]

6 years OTR ain’t slowing down for nobody 🫡⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@TheTruckerPilot1]

It’s not only the food that will take a toll. It’s the inconsistent sleep times that will wear your body out. Not getting enough sleep. The solitude of being alone will take a toll on your mental and emotional health. OTR trucking is literally a jail cell on wheels.

[@seanreyes7694]

Yea otr was cool first couple months lol I’m going on 6 months and ima get my experience and go local asap.I have a baby at home,plus i have dumbbells with me and it’s still hard af to be healthy out here.I gained 24 pounds my first 3 months and I was working out and walking!!I had to hard cut to get it off,no fun.Thank you for this!!

[@Alfonzo0887]

Yeah this was confirmation for me to change and I'm not even OTR. Just bought up on and still carrying out bad eating habits!

[@truckinwithchuck8251]

I make sure I do my push ups and squats every time I stop. It’s a struggle, but you gotta want better

[@jarongrier1267]

This vlog is legendary not only in for truckers but for minorities in general . I’ve been subbed to TB since 2018 for the antics and education but this is by far one of your best videos. We not only need to listen but APPLY most of the information which is easier said then done. I pray peace and prosperity for all those that will apply this info from here on out Respect from CT , TB🤝

[@DivineShaun]

Great show I love when u get to preaching truth. I’m getting back into trucking and ur videos are so refreshing and informative TY 💞

[@Jjohnson62]

Thank you TB for sharing wisdom

[@Robert-bt8cp]

I started in 1996, I'm 6'3 and I weigh 210 lbs. Stay active eat one decent meal per day, never snack unless it is fruit or vegetables. I snack on pineapple, celery and occasionally nuts. Drink lots of water, maybe two cups of coffee at most per day and you'll be just fine. Look truth be told everybody's body chemistry is different. You have to be disciplined and you'll have no worries. I may eat fast food once per week, I stay away from fries and eat the burgers any burger from.anywhere without cheese. Just do your best and watch what and where you eat.

[@NYC_Royal]

I’m not knocking what you are saying but it depends on the person and how much discipline one has. I’ve been in the game for 4 years. I would do squats, I had a dip bar and 25lb dumbbell. I stayed with fruits. I would make a lot of vegetarian meals. Nutribullet is your best friend on the road. Only problem I really had was loneliness at times. It just takes discipline beloved.

[@truckerbaby171]

I agree with all your conversations talk yo ish talk yo ish nothing but facts

[@djpounddd9816]

Talk yo ish TB speaking facts💪🏽😂

[@patden9197]

I did 12 1/2 years OTR IT'S no joke. Done all 48 states!! He's 1000% right.

[@reaganstephens8522]

Everyone quitting and going into tech. Trucking is like coal mining not a job of the future

[@Leonmiller407]

I did OTR for almost 7 years. Gave the keys back. There’s no good way to get off the never ending merry go round but to jump. When I got into trucking I was 180 lbs. left at 305 lbs. I got a new job and you’re right I can’t even stand up for long periods. Didn’t realize how bad my health has declined. Keep preaching TB.

[@mjjtransportationb2186]

Wow

[@aunt-_-]

Man otr is terrible stay local please

[@TSupraLano]

TB the goat , got me in the game🔥🔥 Was watching bro for years then finally made the jump, now I’m about to make 2 years flatbed🔥🔥. “ I was down on my 🤫, and I needed a loan” 🔥🎶🔥🎶

[@wesleyjay24]

Y’all always say you can’t make 100k without hazmat. There’s plenty people working for US Foods, and Sysco making 100k. Most people that say they don’t make that kind of money is because of work effort. when they go home. They just for 5 on 2 off. All you gotta do is just work 6days

[@TSupraLano]

Bernard Hopkins, a boxing champion from Philadelphia called soda liquid crack also. He regained the 175 pound belt at 48 years old. Dude knows about being in shape, TB is right

[@sirgalalot88]

He’s never had a burger in his life too. He was an inspiration for real.

[@TSupraLano]

@Shon East it is what it is, doesn’t bother me

[@TSupraLano]

@Shon East Anthony Dirrel said the same thing to Caleb plant and got knocked out 😂. Devin Haney said it to George Kambosos and actually won the fight. Colby Covington called Brazil a dump in his post fight interview 😂 It’s just words, people will say all kind of stuff, who cares lol

[@juelzadebisi1898]

You preaching today TB! Let the church say amen! Nothing but straight facts once again!

[@franklinstein100]

You on one with this video bro all facts!

[@tunedcreations1815]

Truth sets us free!

[@maycambridge9481]

What about vaping is that ok to do?

[@Trucknhustle247]

I can’t agree to this because it’s all about good eating habits and discipline. Also working out can still happen doing OTR. You can still stop at the grocery stores and fill ya fridge up with healthy eating . Walking and exercising can still be done . Folks just get too comfortable with parking up and laying down and eating truck stop food all day. So at the end of the day it’s all about choices

[@percymirakles]

I appreciate and enjoy this talk.

[@flip0345]

Preperation discipline, this can happen in any industry, workout, eat healthy

[@cshannon6872]

Yap...TB this has to be one of the most painfully honest Pod to date.

[@grooved1375]

Went in 210 came out 298.im pretty sure I touched 300.scared the shit out of me

[@jajajaja2624]

More than me not going no where near otr . Can stay near home and make the some money with two trucks .. I would have my kidneys check with lower back pain . To lose weight fast I walked 4 mile twice a week my blood pressure dropped in two months . Drink water with lemon juice every your sugar levels will drop

[@paulrose132]

I went from 190 to 270 . Then got into flat bed then went down to 250.

[@coolkid9910]

Did immaembarrassyou ever learn spanish? He said he wanted to learn by 2021

[@ce1jenkins816]

After years of eating sugar you suffer from stomach ulcers this was a good topic mr.brown a watch the replay. Good job brother 👊🏿🫵🏿

[@devonwynter5219]

First time in a long time this topic was dead on as far as weight issue I just got a 3 month med card and the classism I never even thought about but these truck companies target the poor with promising to be well off … besides that I’m regional now gym 3 days a week trying to get right Great content Burning Miles!!!!j|

[@mridge29]

You preaching 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 classic

[@sirgalalot88]

I was one of those people. Thought I was untouchable, started Prime PSD at 188lbs. Ended TNT maybe eight months later at 220lbs. No joke. I was thick but hand love handles haha. So thought it was cool til I started checking my blood pressure.

[@madeindade15thave]

Same here it was so hard to get my pressure down I got suspended for not pass a physical that shit got real I passed it took me two weeks and medication and exercise.

[@lorenzobeadle1113]

U talking facts that my I don't talk to these new rookies:::

[@sonofatlas1372]

I’m a former mechanical engineer and I have a masters degree one thing for certain you ain’t making 250k even with a phd that isn’t going to be possible only a rare few this is also the case for tech. You’re only going to make around 70-126k depending on company and contract negotiation you get the life balance but you’ll be mentally unstable with politics and being watched over. You can definitely maintain health that’s true. I do get your point but is OTR really that bad though. 1:10:48 1:11:58 as far as class you’re correct.

[@pfox068]

Great show Tell it like it is! Hopefully lotta young guys hear you

[@AmanBenyamin]

I’m a huge fan already I just subscribed last week but no offense with money problems I’m in and child support I’m going to get my CDL and truck until it’s time to go to my grave because I see no other way, the system is designed for men to pay women all your hard earned money and put a limit on visitation with your children, so f**k it I might as well go on the road and never look back

[@healthfitness9055]

😂 wait till you get otr

[@streetscutlass5155]

Damn Tb is going in like a pastor in the pulpit before he know he about to baptize some sinners

[@lorenzobeadle1113]

And another thing the problem is these newcats have it way toooo' easy The trucks are all automatic i am a manual transmission dude Half of these newcats cannot push a manual

[@TeeStillStanding]

Ur no special, we all make the same bag, I hate 10spd it's more mental work which tires me quicker vs auto on a 600 mile day.

[@seanreyes7694]

Super trucker lerenzo,hates automatic (sissy trucks)man this ain’t the 80s anymore.who cares manual or automatic,like homie said we all get paid and the load gets there

[@FaZeredemption3]
