I’m a male and a former hockey player/bodybuilder. I had an umbilical hernia repaired and abdominoplasty to fix diastasis. I want to get back into hard training again and I’ll be discussing this with my doctor next week. I’m only eight weeks post op and I know I have to start out very easy. There are a few exercises that I want to be able to do again but I’m not sure about if/when. Pullovers, these do stretch the abs. Leg curls, worried about lying face down on the machine. Squats Deadlifts
