It depends on what sort of work you do.

If someone has been doing physically demanding work, such as construction labor, it gets more difficult to keep up with the physical demands of the job as people get older.

On the other hand, if someone has a desk job, that person can continue long past the traditional retirement age.

Quite true.

It depends on what you do and if you like what you do.

And I do.

I couldn't agree with you more, though I'm prejudiced, body just plain broke, had major lumbar surgery in December and just followed that up with cervical fusion on four levels in May and I guarantee you I would rather be working, but being a Walmart greeter is unappealing.
