How is Jamie still in shape after 20 years?

How is smuggling be enough to keep him fit?

I don't know how we are generally supposed to believe twenty years have passed when they both look the same. But oh well.

Claire looks younger now than in 1968! They aged her there a little. She had a few wrinkles at least but came through the stones (out of the coach) all shiny faced. And Jamie looks exactly the same. I’m not crazy about Sam’s effeminate face to begin with. I was hoping when they aged him he’d have more of a rugged look like Jamie was supposed to have.

Because James Alexander Malcolm Mackenzie Fraser was written to be the perfect male specimen by one Diana Gabaldon. I'm sure he also does cross fit in his spare time. Both him and Claire are supposed to be really really really ridiculously good looking and youthful in appearance.

On a more serious note, there are plenty of men in their 40's that are still in good shape and he seems to lead a pretty active life, so... why not?
