Are you in shape and do you exercise?

Nope, unfortunately. On the to-do list before stopping statins. Just need to figure out how to not spend 70hrs / wk at work.

Work is the default, and it will consume as much time as you let it.

In my experience there's nothing more to figure out than setting the boundary and enforcing it on yourself.

Having said that, everyone has time to do as many pushups as they possibly can on a daily basis. This alone will make a substantial difference, and after months or years of doing this, you'll be both feeling better and in a much better position physically to do something more time-consuming like running.

Before you shower every morning, get on the floor and do pushups. This probably only takes a minute of your time in the beginning. Gotta start somewhere, quit making excuses.

How long have you been doing those 70 hours weeks? Some of what feels like decline might be exhaustion or burnout.
