Truckers squat across America; road dogs; and do drivers wear their seat belts? | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

On episode 724 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner is hosting our first-ever trucker health forum. We’ll talk about the new ways that drivers are taking control of their health. I personally joined trucker fitness program Offshift so that I could better understand some of the challenges drivers face while making my own efforts to get in shape. Squat across America with us. 

You’ll learn about the problem, hear solutions, find out about programs designed for your lifestyle, and find a community of like-minded participants. 

Not a trucker? Fear not. These goals also work for sedentary freight brokers and podcasters as well. Featuring Dr. Mark Manera, Michael Lombard; Rob Carpenter; and Dr. Todd Simo.

Health isn’t a driver’s only concern; so is safety. Northland Trucking Risk Control’s Anthony Slamar talks about how fleets are using telematics to drive improved safety.

Plus, do drivers wear their seat belts; what’s changed in trucking over the past twenty years; going down with the ship and more.
