22. Yes, but I've always had low-ish blood pressure.

I think it's somewhat genetic in our family (but I do like to exercise). I've noticed that when I do the treadmill or elliptical, when I'm in cool down, my heart rate drops down to normal pretty fast (so if it's at 151 or something, it will drop to below 110 in less than two minutes).
