Precisely, one should quit all excuses!
My father was prescribed to storvas (for cholesterol) over a decade ago... luckily he is an avid reader and soon found out what road the permanent meds lead to.
He quit the meds and started working out consistently (never mind spondylitis which he combatted with bed rest) for 10 years (and still continuing).
Today, he's over 50 and is killing it in every aspect in life. His mind is sharp, business is good and best of all he can run over 6kms in 30 minutes (plus all the weights and stuff)! He's now reducing running for his knees and cycles out youngsters half his age 3 times a week (with 3 times weight training).
This could've been a very different picture if he continued with prescribed meds. After experiencing this, he's purchased workout plans for everyone in the family for 9 years straight and wants us to treat workouts like we brush our teeth (nevermind if we don't get competitive).
I work way better if I exercise, it's like the clock for my life even in my 20s. Never want to lose the habit.
