Anyone else here exercise purely out of utter fear of aging and mortality? I am a pretty fit guy, I eat hearty foods and I don't smoke or drink, however, I caught a horrible fever last month that kept me in bed for a week. When I was lying in bed shivering cold, I realized that I am almost at my peak (I'm 22) and it may all be down hill from here.

Also, cardiac issues run in my family. Both my grandfathers died of heart attacks, as well as my mom's brother. My dad seems healthy a the age of 62, but he is slowing down and aging rapidly.

How do I deal with this fear? How do I accept that I'm going to slowly get weak, sick and eventually die? How do I continue to live a healthy and happy life while I continue to age?

I hope I die in my sleep rather than a rapid decline after suffering a horrible illness

How much do I have to squat to make sure that never happens?

That's the only reason to exercise OP. What else are you gonna lift for? Girls?
We all reach a peak and then decline towards death. It's a matter of raising the peak and lengthening the decline.

In the end, realize that you shouldn't get wrapped up in your longevity, but focus more on making the most out of every moment. You could die at any moment from some outside factor even if you're an olympic athlete. Find what's the most meaningful and fulfilling part of your life and work on that.

Honestly i started just to look better

Then i realised just what my body is capable of (I don't lift *that* much right now but certainly more than i thought i was capable of) and now it's just "holy shit let's see just how far my body can go..."

My devotion to good karma and day dreaming will have the DMT elves reward me with at least a major supporting role in a parallel isekai universe.
