hernia

[advotrina]

I have a client who has surgery on their hernia about a year ago. He has now hired me to gain himself overall fitness, flexibilty, lean muscle mass and weight loss.

His doctor says he has no core strength and when he was working out,prior to the operation, his body compensated for no core strength and it was all relying on his other muscles.

He says he does not know how to use his core. any suggestions about how I should go about this. I have suggested Yoga/pilates and also constantley reminding him to pull his belly button into his spine. but any other suggestions would be great.

thanks

If you do a search on here I believe there are lots of threads on core training ...
