If you want a actual program my advice would be to go to the hospital in Tupelo and join the wellness center.... sit down with a trainer and tell him what all you got going on and what you want to accomplish.....he will evaluate you and give you a workout program to go by at the
center using their equipment daily. It may get you in shape but your yard wont look as good as mine.

Mine will. Dang, I did it again. Sorry

I thought for sure you guys was going to say y'all Chase woman up and down the aisle at Walgreens while y'all waited on your prescriptions.

My question was simple...I am putting together a program for myself...and wanted to know what works for other older guys...We all have successful retirement stories, or we wouldn't be here...it is easy to get off topic..no harm done...just wanted the information I ask for

I have and sometimes use a total gym. Which I need to get back to using again more. You can pretty well work out a good work out program with it. Bought mine second hand was way cheaper than joining a gym.

walk 2 miles a day 5 days a week . Have been doing this for eight years having been diagnosed as a type two diabetic . Was started on metformin but have taken none in the last 6 yrs. I do not diet but changed lifestyle . No bread, softdrinks, sweets and very few things fried . Baked everything has become the standard . I am no small guy but have dropped 4 pants size about 50 lbs. for 5 yrs . Crash diets are not realistic over long periods of time . Lost 70 lbs. twice only to gain it back . Complete eating change will work but it's slow .
