i have pain just sitting still or bending over. internal oblique strain. i was afraid to move for fear of tearing it more. but i tried the plank, and i can actually do it, so i will go ahead and start rehab. tore it 3 days ago. also tore a back muscle. question. should i wear a back brace, since i messed up a front and back muscle? it was just from repeated lifting and twisting in the same direction with heavy awkward objects. thanks!
Appreciate the in-depth progressions - having some lower back pain during my FAI rehab so these will defo help and glad to see I'm doing some of them already!
I injured my abdominal muscles and having very bad experience with pain. I can't even running fast and lifting any heavy thing (though I am 22 only). Visited many doctors but they always recommend medicine but not showing any improvement. So from today I am starting this exercise and will be waiting to be on the ground again playing cricket.
So glad I watched this. I have severe Tietze syndrome where the cartilage of my ribs gets inflammed with normal ab exercises. I was looking for a way to initially put less weight on my abs and try to progress as far as possible. This was very informative, well-structured and practical. Tx as well for the programme of progression.
Thank you. Strained my external oblique and I’m trying to get back asap because it’s my senior years. Physical therapist is lazy and this helped me more than they have helped.
Did this fix your problem? I did the same thing senior year 2 years ago I still have pain, I’m going to do these constantly and see if that helps. Please let me know if you found anything out this sucks
Man I was sure I strained my obliques but I didn’t even really think that was possible. It makes sense. My core hasn’t been the same since I had an appendectomy
Honestly i had no idea what to do with my rectus strain recovery until i open this video, it's a full program and absolutely effective, thank you so much 👌🏻
Thanks for this video. I didn't realise how bad my core was post-pregnancy until I started weightlifting, been off for 10 days now with strained obliques.
Thank you so much for this video. Ive been carrying right sided injury for over 3 months now and it always keeps grtting worse everytime i try to try doing any activities lifting weights or kicking which s how i got injured.
Superb Video, particularly the progression part and what to focus on throughout the rehab. I have an internal oblique issue so this should help as don’t seem to be getting anywhere.
This was SO great to find. There is so much 'gumph' out there. Every Susie, Tom and whatever who Vlogs, who doesn't have any real knowledge or experience. THANK YOU this was VERY easy, very clear. I LOVE your method and style of sharing/showing. VERY good (seeing the progressions). I am working on recovery from an abdominal strain (upper left). I can't do the resistance bands (to anything, rented apartment and no equipment to wrap the band to!) I really liked the fact that there ARE 'ab exercises' I can do during this time. It may not be what I prefer or am used to, but it's something to help in recovery! Thank you! (Subscribing, I think your channel is great!) I hope to find one for my back now too! I have spondylolisthesis grade 2.
@@dawg4769 honestly i had more of a tear than a strain and have been in recovery for repeated injury or strain from overtraining and under stretching as well as mal nourished. Not implementing the correct diet for recovery and growth, as well as energy supply. I am progressing and have been strengthening. These exercises were beneficial in identifying different stretches that isolated on the pained area.
bruised my Ribs during BJJ/Wrestling a couple of weeks ago, mostly hurt when I was using/stretching my abdominals/obliques, so it felt similair to a muscle strain, I have been doing the isometric stage so far, will try to progress like this video outlines,
Hey! Thanks for this wonderful video. I am a 53 yo sub elite long distance runner- (3:02 Marathon 1:24 Half). I think I pulled a LEFT adductor/lower abd wall mm while running on snow for miles on unsteady surface and left leg slipping many many times. I can run now without much strain but did 11mi in mid 7min range and the pain is now back. Hoping for suggestions on how LONG to wait til I start the exercises you mention above! Thanks again! Rich
Just hurt myself couldn’t even suck my stomach in for 3 days cause of the pain 😢 be careful deadlifting I’ve been out for a week i just want to workout already
@@teofazio19 feeling alot better, basically turned pescatarian and started rehabbing my abs. Lower abdomen workouts and a lot of strength workouts and a lot of cardio 💯 I’m feeling a lot better but still a little pain sometimes, thanks for asking 🙏🏾
The ab wheel is what strained my abs and i read you are not supposed to go more then half way down unless your muscles are very advanced well i did 40 2 days ago and messed myself up to be clear this is after healing right? Or is light exercise good wile healing?
I accidentally found the best progression for abdominal strengthening which is the most weak one I have lol. Thanks, I am so scared because my doctor sent me to the x ray place to discard an hernia and I am scared :,c
I swear I got middle to upper ab strain while doing band pull aparts and a somewhat downward pulling variation at my local PT. (I was there to fix shoulder impingement) I felt the pain start during that set of exercises and the pain has cropped up every couple of months for the last 2 years. Does that make any sense? An ab strain from a back and tris exercise?
@Goki Hey how's it going. After 3 weeks the pain was gone. Up to day 3 I couldn't take a dump cause squeezing my gut to poop was to painful. I'm good now but afraid to going back to work outs right away.
@Goki I also tore my chess weeks, maybe months ago and I can still feel an issue in my chest (just to compare). The oblique truly feels back to normal. However, I'm still taking it east since I'm not sure how strong it is. Did you also tear the muscle or muscles? Thinking about it the only issue that has developed is my hip on the side of the injury feels weird, kind of fatigued something that was never an issue. I was thinking of making a video to share my experience with the community but been busy.
I play soccer and have had groin pain for about 8 months and now on the right side of my abs. I stopped playing 3 months ago thinking it would go away on its own but I was wrong. Would these exercises work for me? I’ve been to the doctors and they said it’s a strain and recommended PT.
@@ImTooLockedIn Mine is finally starting to go away(still not able to sprint but definitely better than it was). What worked for me was lightly stretching it every other night. I think at first the stretching wasn't working because I was over stretching. Also I started walking on the treadmill at slower speed at first than increased it every week. Now I can lightly jog with no pain. I'm not fully healed but definitely better. I hope this helps you
@@hope9457 @hope9457 The doctor from my hospital said It healed during the wait for the echo lol. And now if I ever want to go for bodybuilding and decrease my fat percentage, my stomach will look deformed bc It was a serious rip (or that was he said)
i did this exercise ua-cam.com/video/ohgLmY19jNg/v-deo.html two nights in a row[no pain, no warnings-felt good] and woke up the 3rd day unable to get up from bed, unable tostand stand normally[was hunched over], super painful to walk[ walked like a centenarian] for three weeks, hurt to breathe, hurt to laugh - i went to the er after 3 days and it turns out i tore my rectus abdominus(both) and my right side internal oblique. And then to compensate for the loss of my core? i used my right foot to swing a certain way in order to get out of bed[for some reason i couldnt push up with my arms -im thinking bc the brachialis is connected to the pecs which are connected to the rectus] which then after awhile 2 weeks caused my right legs'/ankle peroneus longus to tear and then my left leg was compensating and its posterior tibial tendon ruptured it turns out we rely on these muscles to do things we take for granted- that was back in May and now im looking to do rehab[my ab muscles 75% healed-cant twist without pain, tendons on legs did not heal - i think its an oxygen issue?] but wary after that incident to follow any program posted online oh and the exercise i posted it actually shows definition after one day -proceed with caution disclaimer: i do have a connective tissue disorder called hypermobility ehlers danlos- but ive never gotten tears before in my abdominal muscles nor the peroneus longus nor the tibial tendon i usually get all the well known athlete tears for doing high intensity athletic sports not low intensity 5 min exercise

Ab roller caused my oblique injury so I’m confused about seeing it in recovery exercises.
Which exercises here are best for a transverse abdominis tear/strain?
This is by far one of the best PT channels on you tube

Anu progress?
@@mianaliasjad Yea this has been very helpful actually - it does work. you just got to be consistent with it. it's really really helpful
@@bitcoinhorizon i have this problem since 2 years
This year it comed back again

Thankyou so much
I did an MRI and shows a strain level 1. How do I know its not sports hernia but abdominal tendinopathy?
What do u guys think about mc gill exercises vs isotonics?
4 Weeks ago I had Fleur-de-lis Abdominoplasty with muscle repair. How do I start exercising again once cleared?

(I was there to fix shoulder impingement) I felt the pain start during that set of exercises and the pain has cropped up every couple of months for the last 2 years. Does that make any sense? An ab strain from a back and tris exercise?
can this occur when overstrestching for example during a cable pulldown? or dumbell pullover?
If I do any of these excercises and experience abdonmial pain should I stop and rest for a longer periiod of time?
Which doctor to consult
Love ❤️ this

Same but i feel like i tire rectus abdominas
When you say three sets 60 seconds. Do you mean 3 reps of 60 seconds. Am i right?
god bless you
Wonderful
