My dad needs help coming up with a workout plan, but for whatever reason, does not want to see a fitness trainer. I am currently twisting his arm to see a nutritionist, but a fitness trainer is out of the question, so I would really appreciate some advice.
My dad is a 59 year old man that has plantar fasciitis, has torn his acl a while ago (it still gives him problems sometimes), gout, and high blood pressure. He has had bypass surgery about 12 years ago, and has been recently diagnosed with diabetes.
As of right now, doing anything too physically strenuous is out of the question due to all of his health issues. However, he needs to be more physically active than occasionally walking on the treadmill. I workout but I am not a fitness expert and I do not know how to accommodate his health issues. Does anyone have any advice on exercises that he could do to help him lose weight/increase his overall quality of life?
Thanks!
