So some one I know is a heart patient , they cant do heavy duty exercise but need to keep their body moving to keep health intact …

Walking isnt really helping much , they are still gaining weight … what type of exercises do you recommend?

1. If they’re recovering from a serious heart condition, they need to meet with a nutritionist AND a rehab specialist who can help them come up with a routine.

2. Regardless of how much exercise they do…they will continue to gain weight if their diet is not drastically changed.

** On a side note…a few years ago my dad started having really high blood pressure (he was overweight too at that time). He finally realized that he needs to get healthy. Since then…he changed his diet drastically…and started walking. My parents both walk together 2 miles every…single…day. They have a treadmill in the house for super hot or super cold weather. Just by walking/dieting religiously…my dad managed to lose almost 40 pounds.
