Barbell squats, bench press, deadlifts, bent over rows, etc.  Believe it or not a good weight lifting program just once or twice a week will keep you in this job longer by balancing out the imbalances of the job, strengthening joints and connective tissue, enabling better sleep, boosting testosterone, and more.  The job is catabolic so you need to make sure you challenge the muscle fibers to maintain or grow, or you will lose it.  When you lose muscle, you lose the hormones that go along with it, you will age faster, you will injure yourself sooner.</blockquote>
