Was that a jab at Spence? 
Remember Bill Murray in the movie Stripes ?........"I'm pacing myself, sir"....take heed....he who paces himself lasts longest...no collar necessary.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Blue collar or white collar is less important than fat or skinny.
I wrote a poem:
Fat surfcaster and skinny surfcaster to a spot did race
Fat surfcaster fell off the rock and broke his hip, knee and face
Skinny surfcaster stayed and fished in his place

I am somewhere in between Blue/White. I do constructions sales. Somedays I am at a desk all day, somedays I am in the field in boots and hardhat getting dirty. More desk work lately though.
I think it comes down to passion and love of the sport more-so than your job.
I go to the gym 4 days a week, so no matter what I am doing, I am in reasonable shape. Although the winter beer bulge does seem to last further into the spring each year.

White collar but have a 15 acre farm so I am always cutting wood, brush, building stone walls, etc. I lasted 40 years in the surf average 100+ nights a year. Still had the stamina till I got cancer then the chemo kicked my butt so I got a boat. I went into remission this Fall so I was back in the surf up to Dec.
I don't think the job as anything to do with it. It's the passion the guy has for the sport that determines how long he lasts....

No boat, back in the suds.
