well, a therapist should be godsent for streaching, and a nutritionalist should be great for a diet. i dont suggest making a plan by yourself, consult a doctor/nutritionist/P.therapist.

have him stretch his legs out. while sitting in the wheel chair, he should be stretching it straight out, and back in, straight out, and back in... have him eat fruuits, veggies, chicken, and lots of salad. he needs to move his arms alot to. Although he is in a wheelchair, there is still alot that he can do. it may hurt for a while, but that's the only way to lose. good luck. by the way, i like ur name jon. on of my best friend's names is john, and he is really cool.

well= if his knees hurt work out his arem and CHANGE HIS EATING HAbITS so that he can get outta that wheel chair to do some cardio exersizzes. my advise is to get some free weights and he can also do ab exersizes still since it's his knees...good luck to him!
