I didn't want to derail the Pain vs. Injury thread, but I've frequently seen people post things along the line of "certain body types can't hold up to the hours and intensity of the sport", so (and this is probably a silly question) is there a body type that does hold up well to the intensity and the hours? Is it possible to say girls who are (fill in the blank with more flexible, stronger, leaner, shorter, or whatever) are less prone to injuries, or is it just impossible to predict given all the different factors with coaching/training/stretching etc.?
