Ab Work And Band?



Recommended Posts

I've been taking a body sculpting class, where we do a lot of an work. I've been two times and the dy after is always rough. Obviously my abs are sore, but it is the inside of my tummy that I'm worried about. It hurts like I have a stomach bug or something (kind of like that soreness you feel after having the stomach flu). Has anyone else experienced this?

I worked out on an ab cruncher machine and my tummy was sore too...not the muscles...but an internal kind pain...so I stopped. But i know i need to work my abs...just worried about it to.

I worked out with a personal trainer after I was banded and my abs were super sore but that is normal. Keep up the av work it will really help. The stronger your core the better you will feel.

Good luck!

I do an ab circuit 5 times a week but I am two years out. Never had a problem.

I now my abs will require a lot of work so will be nice to see what the surgeon says about it .

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
