Curious, I turned 50 and my core is terrible (used to be flat as a washboard, even relaxed). But after decades of weight-gaining and weight-losing, when relaxed, my belly is like a loose bag. It as if all my innards just fall right down into my lower abdominal area the moment I relax it.
Is this reversible without surgery? Are my intestines enlarged? If I get my bodyfat down really low, will whatever that supports your organs (I'm assuming it's a fascia of some sort like when gutting a buck) reduce in size or elasticity? I hate that I have a bag for a belly. Is there any hope?
I have never had any hernias or tears. Nothing like that at all. But I have used a lot of gear and have heard as we all have, that our organs also experience hypertrophy. At this point, I don't care if I lose all my musculature and am just like a skinny punk. I just want a flat stomach again. I can grow my muscle back from there bc I gain muscle quite easily.
@Big A , I'm sure you'll do well with this. The one thing I've learned about you over so many years is how resilient you are. This will be no different. It will be hell though.
I had to wear this huge thigh splint for 2 months until my femur healed after that idiot smashed into me. I should have sued his balls off but he was so apologetic, cried real tears, I just demanded medical be covered. It will be hell for you but you MUST remain inactive. Any more trauma, even micro-trauma and your split will just widen. Even if slowly. The full body wrap is like a truss. But after that comes off, you have to get after your abs and obliques hardcore.
Does anyone know if the fascia (the belly bag) shrinks over time? Even with 45-55 yr old?
For example, if you use syntherol and get an oddly enlarged muscle area, if you stop working that muscle and allow it to shrink, will the fascia eventually re-tighten around the muscle? I don't know enough about the fascia to say.
