Lifting for Work?

[b fold the truth]

I have heard of people lifting for specific sports like football, soccer, powerlifting, strongman, etc...

What about a post for people who lift for work: construction, police officer, security guard, gas attendant.

Yeah...a gas attendant...how would you set up a lifting routine for a gas attendent? Full service with a car wash!!!

This could be good..

I have a maintenance job, I could never rely on that for exercise.
If I didn't work out I would look like all the other Fat-bodies in the shop! So I don't lift for my occupation, but one reason I train is because of it!

I am currently training for my next job. Does that count? I currently am the IT manager for International Programs at a major university but am finishing a degree in Law and Society there at the same time. I hope to move into federal or state law enforcement next summer after I graduate. I am lifting for fitness, strength and physique in that order. I want to be the best at the agility tests, able to hold my own in a scuffle and fill out that uniform (or black suit ).

You'll remember that I'm one of those twits that do HIT training and HIIT cardio. Works for me.

Goals: Get to 220 by graduation (currently 240), Get the position I am interviewing for Friday and then take care of business.

I'm a social worker that works with violent kids, being big and strong at work is a must for me!

I train mostly for fighting, but I plan on going into law enforcement after a few years of working in executive protection. So, lifting helps a bunch for work.

I lift for my computer programming job. Strongest fingers in the U.S. baby.

I'm a musician, I need to be in incredible shape to perform...

Warik,
That's funny, I'm also a computer programmer (part time while I'm going to school). Didn't think there were many lifters+programmers out there.

One more computer scientist--though currently still searching for a job. One advantage is that when you're around a bunch of guys who live on Twinkies and Jolt Cola, sleep 4 hours a night, and have only just enough muscle to depress the keys on the keyboard, an average looking guy like me suddenly looks like a god. And you get to do things like say "Oh, so you don't like my coding style?" while menacingly flexing your pecs.
