I unsuccessfully tried to find on Google which famous socker goalkeeper from the old days, when he was over 40 and still was a goalkeeper of the national team, just because he was still better than other young goalkeepers - and asked by journalist what is his secret, I remember he replied like this:
"Training is like a drug."
I can confirm, and I am older than he was then ;)
