Default Workouts while waiting for ADR

Everyone in our family is triathletes. While waiting to find a doctor and get the surgery, does anyone know how much workout someone with a C5-6 and C6-7 can do? He's stopped swimming because it hurts too much, but wants to keep biking, running, weight lifting. The local PA said stationary bike and eliptical are fine, but doesn't want him lifting anything over 20#. Dang.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?
