200 crunches- woke up with port pain

yesterday worked out with a personal trainer and felt decent as I did 200 cunches and 3 sets of holding a medicine ball and twisting (oblique excerise)

this morning, woke up at 6 a.m. with the kind of punched in the stomach feeling when I got the band put in ( March 08)

do you think I just overworked my muscles or did I do anything to harm my band or port?

possibility- I also just got a fill 2 days ago and it might be tender ?

the pain is a few cm above my port incision , which is right under where my clevage meets. It hurts to cough.

Maybe someone has some help here before I call my Dr. so I don't become the girl who cried wolf

okay you did 200 crunches so I'm going to go ahead ad say it...duh you have pain lol. Your port is stitched to your abdominal muscle so when you tighten and relax that muscle a lot you are going to have pain in it. I don't think you would have hurt it at all...maybe next time slowly work your way up to 50 then 75 then 100 then you get the idea :thumbup: Way to go on the 200 though

I really think it was the obliques... I have been working out with a trainer and he pushes me hard- which is what I need!

He says this is what I need to help get stronger and tone the belly fat.....

I have had my infamous pot belly since I have been 8 years old!
