The roofer does actually carry that load for MANY hours of the day, while exposed to the elements, almost always on an incline or decline and faces almost certain death while doing it.
I'm not sure that compares with having a child on your hip for 1.5 hours a day. No doubt kids do wonders for a new mother's shoulders, back and biceps. Though i'm sure no roofer will trade places with you. lol

Have you ever heard exercise is good for you? Most disease and dysfunction is related to lifestyle. Good to not smoke or drink as you mentioned but physical activity is necessary to be functional into late years. Also suggested cognitive ability may be improved with aging.

Being active is good but don't think you can count heels as a health benefit. I have stairs in my house but that doesn't count either unless I run up them 200 times in a row.

What do you mean pack your bags? I keep a go-bag ready at all times and my passport with me. I'm ready to go at the drop of a hat!!

I was simply asking what you did out of curiosity. I didn't put 2 and 2 together (toddler = 22 lbs). I'm not denying a roofer's tool belt is easier for him to carry than a toddler is for you. I can't even carry my 40 lb first grader for more than a few seconds anymore.

Start lifting said toddler by squatting down and lifting with legs. Boom! Problem solved.
