Hi Chris,
I am actually a Recreation Therapist and have some training in fitness.
The plan is to do lower body and upper body on alternate days.
Some weight training, some cardio, etc. They will lay it out for me on paper
and once I have it I'll get some opinions.
Thank you so much for your concern as I completely understand what you are
saying.
