nothing like physical work while you're growing to build muscle!  it
also builds bones and ligaments, two things that stop when you stop
growing.

i'm not built like a footballer - unless maybe you mean soccer - but i
rode my bike to school in jr. high, 6+ miles each way, and i was in
better shape those 2 years than all the time i took phys ed.  a little
over 10 years later i rode the same route a little farther to my job,
almost 10 miles on the dot, and from leaving my kitchen to stepping
into my 3rd-floor office - including 2 stoplights - i consistently
clocked 32-33 minutes.  no, i wasn't racing or 'pushing'...  i'm only
in fair shape now but i still have that muscle; i walk the mile-plus
cross town to my bank in under 20 minutes without even trying.
