877513 发表于 2019-12-23 01:40:21 Thank you, it did. I realize that this is a unusual question for a veteran trucker. I'm going to CDL School in 2 weeks after 30 years in Corporate America. I've been off for a couple weeks and I think about things regarding my new career. I'm an avid gym rat and am trying to figure out how and when I can workout ( Planet Fitness) when OTR. 😁
","text":"You find time during your 14 hours duty day when possible. Your 10 hour break can be used for gym time, so can the 30 min. lunch break. I also use load and unload time if I am permitted to be outside of my truck (per customer policy).  Get a jump rope and a yoga map. Free weight time will be premium.","replyToPid":289355}

","text":"The good ol rules and regs can be confusing. It's good you're asking questions ahead of time. If you'll be running e-logs, most programs alert you to what you need to do and when as far as hours between breaks and the like. Just always take the time to plan your route and add time for unforeseen delays. And don't rely on what time any given mapping app may tell you on how far you maybe able to in x-amount of hours. Get out the good old paper atlas and compare the various routes so you have a backup plan. Remember that a lot of your truck stops on major routes fill up a little more early than on secondary highways, in other words, don't think \"oh I can make 650 miles today and stop at this place for my off duty hours\"  it could be full, so think ahead and stop early if need be. It's easy once you get the hang of it. But please remember, don't always rely on the darn apps to get you around. Compare them to an actual truckers road atlas and give yourself some plans. Good luck","replyToPid":289352}

{"replyTo":"","text":"You are trapped for 10 hours. No getting out, no restroom, nothing.\n\nBut seriously, the rule basically states that you must have a total of 10 hours off. At least 2 hours of that 10 must be logged as Off Duty, Not driving. The other 8 must be logged as consecutive hours under Sleeper Berth. (If you're a day cab and stay at a motel, then the hours will all just be logged as Off Duty)\nFor example...If you park and log off, Off Duty, go shower, eat, walk around for an hour, climb in the sleeper for sleeper Berth for 8 hours, wake up, go back to 1 hour of Off Duty while you get your coffee and breakfast,and  brush your teeth like a good little trucker, then you have fulfilled your 10 hours. You can split up the 2 hours however you want to, as long as you log the 8 hours consecutively. Of course, most people obviously can not go a full 8 hours without having to use the restroom or walk around. You do not need to change you duty status just to get up and go wee in the middle of your sleeper berth hours.\n\nI hope that made sense","replyToPid":0}
