Slight belly button pertrusion?

[HimRoid]

How docs diagnose this type of hernia?? Is it the doc grabs your balls and cough test??

He sticks his entire fist in your butthole and feels around.
Haha

Just kidding of course

I think this has happened to me too

I was doing seated cable tricep over heads and I felt a pop (no pain) in my abs, this was a year ago an my bf was high, now am lean and my abs don't look the same. It's like the skin is not attached to the ab muscles, it's smooth across the abs above my belly button plus my button is sticking right out, iv started wearing a belt every weight session but it does feel like it's sticking back and ripping back off every time I bend down,

When I lie down and try pull myself up it looks horrible, not to bad looking from standing but still looks shit, I wanted to compete next year too but iv ruined my mid section

Umbilical hernias usually occur when you are at your most bulked up size. Your turtle shell gut gets huge and the straining from dead lifts, bent barbell rows, etc puts too much pressure on your gut. Wearing a belt while lifting helps protect you. Women get these hernias while pregnant. Too much pressure expanding the belly causes a slight tear in the muscle an the intestines pop through. It progresses over time. My dad has had one for years. You just have to get careful not to strain it so your insides don't come outside.

What do you think? Hernia or just te skin ripped away from the ab wall?

So I have a client who specializes in working with women with ab separation post pregnancy, and she showed me some work to do to strengthen my transverse abs and RE train the way I tighten /hold my core as I lift to help from making it worse, but of course am going to check with an MD and get input. Possible surgery.


One thing that can cause this is ether pushing your abs out as you lift, not pulling them in and tightening using your transverse abs, or relying too much on a belt and not properly strengthening those deep abs

Cheers mate

But jj has scared the life out me saying my guts will burst out an ill die in the gym

Iv never used to wear a belt but now I wear one every work out, don't want it getting worse, I can't train abs either, unless I do rope pull down an breath in

Every time I bend down it feels like it's going to go

Looks identical to mine. I havent had mine checked yet because it's been the same if not slightly better in the last year. I assumed it was a hernia but until it gets worse I have bothered going to a doctor. I'll bring it up at my next physical.

From what I've researched this week, a belt is a bad idea. You're only increasing intra abdominal pressure. Using proper transverse ab control and not letting ur stomach push out when u lift is better. Everything I've read says a belt is likely to make it worse

I think your right, I just my lower back out other day doing rack pulls for the first time ever an I was wearing the belt,

I am having a hard time training ATM as am concentrating so hard on keeping my core And abs tensed in that I forget to focus on the targeted muscle, sucks
