What are better ways of controlling my asthma?

I have horrible asthma, but I like to go to the gym and run/work out. It’s hard though because my chest ends up hurting and I start wheezing before it can really do much for me LOL. I take advair and I have an albuterol inhaler that I carry around with me, but is there anything else a doctor could do for me? A surgical procedure maybe?

There are no surgical procedures for asthma. The Advair might be making your asthma worse, when I took it that happened to me. Something to do with one of the ingredients called Salmeterol. Talk to your doctor and see if you should change medications, something like Symbicort, Qvar, Singulair, etc.
