Exercise 6 weeks after tummy tuck and muscle repair. Can I start static planking and other ab exercises yet ? Before my tt I worked out most days and did a lot of abdominal workouts I also do a lot of pole fittness which uses a lot of abdominal core strength how long before I can start basic pole and inverting on the pole ?
