Repaired Hernia and Getting back on Sauce

[ad1das3]

Got my hernia repaired 4 weeks ago at shouldice hospital.

They say i can lift as heavy as i want after 4 weeks and it will not re-occur.

How long after hernia surgery should someone wait before going back on cycle?

You can train natural until you get almost back to pre-operation size,then get back on the sauce.I would train 1-3 months natural then hit the gear.

Make sure to work your core EOD to keep it tight. This will REALLY help you from tearing it open again. Trust me, been there, done that, again..... lol If I would have taken my own advice and my docs advice, I wouldn't have torn it open again, and made it worse that it was before. Now I'm waiting to get mine umbilical hernia fixed again. Its pretty bad right now. I also wish I could get mine done at the Shouldice Hernia Hospital. But I live all the way over here in Sask.

Umbilical hernia for me also, will be going to Shouldice soon, costing a few bucks out of pocket but it will be done right. I'm also out of province but it's worth it, heard nothing but good coming out of Shouldice. I should make a commercial....lmfao!

Yah you wanna be safe, don't lift untill you are ready, and really I think the first reply's advice makes the most sense. No point in being on gear if you can train balls to the wall.
