Use it or lose it.

Why hasn’t anyone made the link between physicality and photography yet?
Most photographers I know are either “skinny fat”, overfat, or just really skinny and sickly looking. Besides my friend Shay Allen, I don’t know any photographers who are built like fighters or body builders.
