[quote=Anonymous]Was reading the other thread on D1 v. D3 and it got me wondering about the long term consequences of playing "harder" athletics in college. I have a very limited pool of anecdotal stories to draw from, but three (3) former players I know have told me that they were "still paying the price of playing D1 sports". They had injuries that were still acting up 10 years after they played, and two of the three have definitely lost their fitness (and gained quite a bit of weight). Has there ever been a study on the fitness levels of former college athletes vs. their classmates, say 10 years on from graduation? Any other former players who have some stories to tell about their current fitness, and whether playing an organized team activity vs. individual fitness training has kept them more fit in the long term?[/quote]
