I know electricians in their 60's that are insanely fit. Like run up and down flights of stairs all day no issue fit. They take care of themselves and always have, and never stopped moving. I think manual labour with a proper diet and sleep schedule is one of the best things you can do for your body.

It's also because a lot of blue-collar guys are heavy smokers and drinkers, which ages people fast. It's not so much the work as it is the lifestyle. The work can cause injuries as well, but being injured isn't the same thing as looking older than your years.
