I think there’s a lot of variance in essentially people’s constitution. Marc Andreesen used to say the ideal lifestyle was like 12 hours of coffee followed by 6 hours of alcohol daily. That would kill me. But for the first I dunno 25 years of my life, I didn’t workout, smoked, drank 2 liter mountain dews and ate like crap, and I felt and looked great. I basically just kept doing that until I couldn’t, and I think some people that goes on for longer than others. One of the happiest people I knew was a total hedonist, who dranked, ate and smoked himself to a heart attack in his fifties. And he had much more energy than me, a guy who ran marathons. He used to run circles around me at work(a physical job, catering) and would often ask why I worked out for energy/strength. He didn’t understand the point.
