Hernia Surgery

[PureCaper]

just had hernia surgery. Wondering when I can get back in the gym if any of you have had experience with it. Doctor told me 6-9 weeks but was hoping someone with experience here could tell me their story.

 

My friend had the surgery and he was out of the gym for about 6 weeks. Please take it easy in the beginning and don't rush and re injure yourself.

Plenty of rest mate, otherwise you’ll be straight back with another!

Listen to your Doctors. Do NOT try to rush back into the gym, you'll risk re-injuring yourself which will only further delay your return to the gym.

Don't underestimate a hernia brother, just take the 6 weeks + off no point of rushing it and getting another or worsening the injury, you'll get those gains back mate, just focus on diet in the meantime, Goodluck and wish you the best!
