I'm planning on starting back up on the EA Sports Active 2 workout on Monday which will be about 2.5 weeks after surgery and after I meet with my doctor. It can be a little intensive at times with some running and ab exercises. Should I be worried about that and is it too soon for ab exercises? I think you can customize the workout around it but I was just wondering. Thank you.

My surgeon told me no ab exercises for 8 wks to allow your stomach muscles time to heal. But you may want to call and ask your surgeon as they may have different requirements. I know two weeks out my husband had to go back to work so I had to resume taking care of our then 9 month old daughter. Doctor told me limited lifting cuz she was 18lbs. But just leaning down to lay her in the crib used my abs and i sure felt were the port was. After a day or so my abs hurt so bad from the strain I was putting on them. Luckily I didnt tear my stitches by the port. Anyhoo, enough of my rambling. Congrats on your surgery and good luck!!!

Definitely need to talk with your doctor. Mine told me to limit myself for 4 weeks and then I could go back to anything I wanted to do

Mine said 8 weeks for abs! Definitely check with your Dr. Good Luck to you!

What about kickboxing, step, Zumba classes? How soon can u take those kind after surgery? When can u get back into a gym? How soon? Treadmill?? Thanks for help

They told me no abs, no weights and no swimming for at least 6 weeks out. It's only 3 more weeks I guess, I miss swimming the most since it's been 105 everyday here in Texas.
