[QUOTE="Dumbo, post: 3074924, member: 67762"] As far as injuries go...how much do you think has to do with being injured as a result of poor health? Not trying to be sarcastic, but how many of them take care of themselves, eat healthy, legitimately stretch? I'm also a personal trainer and owned a gym and I've worked with literally hundreds of clients and can tell you most of the time knee and back problems are from tight muscles, or the stress on joints and low back from being over weight. I've worked with people well into their 50s with very physical jobs and in most cases, barring an actual accident, the body is made to move and the more active you are, the opposite effect is actually achieved and you are much less prone to injury. I'd bet that most UPS drivers who take care of their bodies and nutrition are probably less apt to injury due to the nature of the job than a sedentary overweight office worker who will tear a meniscus by the slightest twist.
