ab exercise after tummy tuck

question????

After my tummy tuck my dr said to never do ab exercises again!  He said he gave me a six pack and to leave it alone... but that doesn't sound right to me, and i think he was a quack.... have you ever heard this before?

thank you!

That sounds whacko to me. If you don't do ab work, you will have a weak core and that can impact all sorts of physical activity.

no ab work, no six pack.  that being said, i'm not sure if you are healing after a tummy tuck or you are done healing, but i would make sure you are ready to start up ab work.

your core is the most important part of your workout and body. this sounds strange to me I would make sure you are throughly healed then see how you feel. It is up to you what you want. My doc says I can work out lightly now but no lifitnig for 3 months it takes a long time for the core to heal but you can work out after 3 to 6 months. some people choose not to it depends on your overall goal.
