It shouldn't effect your size too much, as long as your eating right. You may even gain some real world strength that'll transfer into the gym. One of my buddies I workout with does construction, and his back is unnaturally strong for his appearance.

Sounds like really tough back breaking work. Why would you want to do it besides money?.

[wannabswole]

really its just the money and benefits...where i work i dont get no benefits or anything and i dont wanna deal with people anymore

theres a big dude at my gym that works in the oil rig business,not 1week on and one week off though,cause i brought this up when he said he doesn't get to the gym too often cause of his job.It would prob be nice muscle confusion,just eat every 2-3 hours,and sleep will be easy with the long hours(dont know if you will be able to eat),i would literalyeatwork,eat,shower,eat ,and sleep.Up the carbs cause you will need them.I build fences and do this when were busy,i always wondered if it held me back,long hours,digging holes,mixing conc.,pushing wheel barrow with 160lbs conc and ass load of water,carying wood,and just walking back and forth all day,even easy days are light cardio.Then i started putting on more fat than i wanted.You just have to make your diet overcomes whatever you're doing.I dont get benefits either,but i work for my dad,so i can eat every 2 hours,and 1 day i'll be"bossman"so i stay

nice to hear

yeah, i dont mind working the hours but i need the food every 3 hours i know im gonna burn a lot more calories compare to the job i have now...i guess i gotta eat a lot...sandwiches, tuna, easy to shove down food lol

well its good to hear theres big guys (bodybuilding) that work in oil rigs...all the guys i know that work there are either skinny or fat...i dont wanna get skinny...because i can loose weight really quick
