HERNIAS... Who had/has em'?

[bodytemple75]

I had 2 on my lower abdomen, a good 6 years ago. Turned out, one was congenial, and one was from whatever... Always trained smart and safe, Though, I guess sometimes these things just happen. Got it taken care right away with Liproscopic surgery. Not a problem. I'm always "extra careful" now whatever I do. From then, I always wear an athletic supporter to the gym. (kind w/ out the cup) Helps a lot. Sweat less too. I like it better than wearing any regular underwear when training. You can't stress enough how good support down there is "key."

I have not had the pleasure, but it is good to know that you bounced back like that after surgery (albeit non-intrusive surgery).

Sorry, no source posting here.

I got a hernia in my groin area when I was about 22 years old. Went to the gym real early in the morning when there was hardly anyone there and did a set of heavy squats. Had around 475 lbs. on the bar going into my third set and while I was powering up on a rep in the bottom position, I felt a searing pain in my groin. There was no one there to help me so I powered through the rep and racked the weight. I knew immediately there was a serious problem when I looked down and there was a bulge about the size of my fist poking out. Scared the living shit out of me! I went straight to the emergency room. Surgery was done the next day. Still have a piece of woven mat sewed into the area so it wont happen again. I have never done a squat since that day (im 31 now), I stick to heavy leg presses.
