A certain thought came into my head when thinking about Spartans. It was: Since Spartans are enhanced the way they are, will they be able to live longer than the average human?
Think about it. Spartans go through a lifetime of training, boosting the growth of an already greater-than-average-strength six-year-old. On top of their increased discipline(and their indefinite increase in body build), they also went through genetic/cybernetic augmentation, which brought them above and beyond their previously improved strength.
Now, this increased strength, speed, agility and intelligence obviously did something to the Spartans. If Spartans were essentially better in every way, shape, and form; would that mean that they would age better, as well (meaning, retaining their athletic ability and being more immune/stronger against problems that normal people face, e.g., disease, stress, etc)? Or, would their increase in growth also be equaled out with an increase in deterioration after a certain age?
