Case 2: An elderly woman with osteoarthritis asks you design an exercise program to help her to become more flexible and stronger overall. Describe a training program that would help her to meet these goals ?

As a Fitness trainer I suggest the exercise program with (PACE) principals: that will be as follows:
 
1. Light flexibility to 10 minutes before starting the any work-out session ,                                                                       (flexibility and stretching for affected joints and other rest joint to improve joint and muscle functions).
 
2. Two Days of water aerobic or non impact aerobic in a week for around 12 to 15 minutes , and I will also check heart rate during this session , these days will be Monday and Thursday, in the week
and add abdominal exercises and lower back exercise with this session ,                                                                                 those will be:                                                                            
abdominal      sitting abdominal machine       2 sets        12-15 reps
lower back     sitting back extension (mach.) 2 sets        12-15 reps
 
3. Two Days of weight training , that will be 2 sets of each major muscle group of 10 to 12 repetitions each set and 1 set of each minor muscle group of 12 repetitions , also give sitting exercises for this client .These days will be Tuesday and Friday .
                                                                                            A sample weight training program is for this client as flows :
Upper body                                                                         Sitting chest press                      2 sets                10 -12 reps
Lat pull down                             2 sets                10 -12reps
Machine press (shoulders)            2 sets                10-12reps
Biceps curls                               1 set                  12 reps
Triceps extension                       1 set                  12 reps
Lower body                                                                          Leg extension machine                2 sets                10-12reps
Laying leg curls (mach.)              2 sets                10-12reps
Seated calf raises                      2 sets                10-12reps
                                                                                         And add Light flexibility and stretching again after all the exercise sessions for 5 to 10 minutes , flexibility and stretching for affected joints and other rest joint to improve joint and muscle functions.

This training program would help this old lady to meet her goals.
