    I was just speaking on playing football from high school through college. I was a D-lineman so I did a hell of a lot of powerlifting. While it is awesome to be strong as an ox at that age if football is your job, there is no longevity bonus except for the fact that you've built a good foundation to keep working with. I've torn 3 different muscles(at the tendon origin) and herniated a disc in my lower back... Bah, I'm not worse off than the skateboard kid that has broken every bone in his body, etc., but damn it all aches here and there. Several surgeries later, smarter workout methods and a desk job later here I am! :D
