MANCHESTER UNITED legend Gary Neville is refusing to slow down despite his worrying collapse following Raheem Sterling's opener at Euro 2020 against Germany.
Neville has a wide range on interests beyond his TV work.
The United and England icon is the co-owner of League Two side Salford.
Neville also has an interest in business, education and politics – but he has no intention of taking his foot off the gas.
The former right-back told Geoff Shreeves on the latest episode of his Overlap YouTube series: "I was worried, had tests and they said to me you need to slow down.
"They identified problems I've got which I shouldn't have at the age of 47."

Neville added: "The word I love the most in life is relentless.
"I just genuinely think we have a short period of time in this earth that we have to do everything we possibly can.
"I only do things I'm really passionate about. I feel like I have to do the maximum."
Neville loves the world "relentless" so much he named a company after it.

Shreeves asked Neville whether his collapse last summer was a wake-up call.
He collapsed following Sterling's Euro 2020 knockout opener against Germany and had a fit.
Neville says he used to ask his dad to "slow down", who he tragically lost aged 65 to a heart attack.
He said in response to Shreeves: "But that was my dad.
"I wanted him to slow down to stop doing things and I do sometimes cry about my dad but the reason that I don't really have any regrets about my dad's life is that he was out until 4, 5 o'clock in the morning with my sister [former England netball head coach Tracey] and her mates the week before.
"He flew over to Australia to watch her in the Commonwealth Games, on a 24-hour flight to be there with her, and lost his life there.
"Everything he wanted to do he did. I wish he was here now at the age of 72, 73 but then he would have had to miss a lot of things that he loved doing and I think I'm in a similar boat.
"[Neville's former coach] Brian Kidd used to have this thing – 'get your pace early, you can't make it up at the end' and it used to stick with me.

"Sprint, go as fast as you can and fall on the floor earlier than trying to think you can measure it, jog and then do it at the end.
"It's my philosophy. Go for it, just sprint, go as fast as you can and to be fair it will cost me, I know it will cost me at some point but I can't stop. I can't stop."
