I see a Doctor every year, get blood work, stress tests, different scans, etc.
However, I jog, climb, weight lift, do pushups and other bodyweight exercises, easily get my heart rate up over 150 beats per minute (I'm considered an old person so that is as high as I'm allowed to push it - a younger athlete could push it to 185 with a Doctor's permission)
I do not take nor do I need any medication. I hike up 14,000 feet elevation hiking trails and SCUBA down to 125 feet below sea level.
The only recreational substance I partake in is sugar free RedBull.
