What makes it even stupider is that it was outright stated those Dark Troopers are for gameplay purposes only, and should not be taken as canon.

But ANH, they would have bodies of 60 year old men. I'm guessing the remaining first generation clones used cybernetics to keep them fit enough to fight. Of course Cody had to take a desk job on Kamino, goodness knows what happened to the rest of them in actuality.
When your whole life is devoted to fitness, you can keep your capabilities to an old age. Just take these master athletes over 50 who are still competing.

There are also a few soldiers who have served multiple tours on the front lines for the US in Iraq and Afghanistan recently who are nearly 60.

You might have a point. Still pretty hard to imagine such a large number fighting at that age without some sort of technological assistance. Maybe a fault of mine and I need to reevaluate this.
