I consider it, rightly or wrongly, as the ability to do sustained work or endurance - the difference between being able to haul one 50kg bag of cement and 50 bags

That would be "wrongly" then. What you are referring to requires stamina, not well toned muscles. In the case of stamina, some people can be fat, but still have a lot of it, many do because they have to carry around all that extra weight, however, ultimately it puts too much prolonged strain on the heart, basically wearing it out before it's time.
