Stop worrying: The GFR estimates are subscientific -- you can tell this yourself because the adjustment for muscularity is based not on looking at you, but on the box someone checks to indicate your race (!) i'd be very happy with your current labs. Treat the person, not the numbers. Comply with any rx for hypertension, limit your salt intake, and keep doing the fitness stuff you enjoy.
