Podcast Response to Query From Mark

Will the BackBlock regime make my hernia worse?
1

Mark’s Question: “Hi Sarah thanks for your generosity with your knowledge

I have been doing the backblock routine for years having bought your book Body in Action when it was first released.

I have recently been diagnosed with a small inguinal hernia after some heavy lifting. ( I should know better at my age)

The doctor says it it too small to be worried about repair at this stage

My question: is it OK to continue with the backblock routine including legs passing and reverse curl ups.

Will this strengthen the region or make the hernia worse.”
