What All Tests Should Be Done For A Complete Health Check Up?

I am 71 years old, female, no major health problems, exercise cardio and strength 5 days a week for 2 hours, including walking 10,000 steps most days. I want to know what types of tests or checkups I need for an annual physical. Last year I didn’t think the check up was not thorough enough. I am concerned as to whether I am overworking my heart and would like a stress test. What constitutes a complete check up in your opinion?
