– why is working a manual labor job (construction, manufacturing, etc) destructive to your body but going to the gym every day isn’t?

I’m an electrician and a lot of the older guys at my job have so many knee and back issues but I always see older people who went to the gym every day look and feel great

Even if you go to the gym every day, it’s not close to a full time manual labor job. You’ll often be doing the same task for hours or days at a time.

However, sitting at a computer or driving all day will actually kill you, so I’ll take manual labor (I gave up my sales career and started a trade business)
