This is very specific, but I was able to get my father into shape in his 40s. He completely neglected fitness from 22-40 due to work, stress, etc, but he did have experience from his teenage years.
He is in his 60s now with a six pack doing pull ups to solar plexus, running, squatting with weight, deadlifting, doing push ups, etc.
The whole "old-guy fitness" thing is not a meme - you won't be setting records, but you can stay in shape if you eat right and work out (assuming no pre-existing conditions). He also doesn't spend more than an hour working out a day, if you don't count the walks.
He also got braces and it worked really well.
I don't want to get into other things like "Get into IT", because I don't know how really relevant that is anymore. There is also the question of "Getting your stuff together" vs "Having time to enjoy life", which is a whole separate discussion. Good luck.
