    I don’t have any experience with hernias, but 5 years is a long time!
    It depends on how it’s feeling now, and also how it’s going to cope with any new exercise.
    You may find that it will give you no problems whatso ever, or you may find that it needs easing in gently.
    Even if never injured your body needs time to adapt to new stresses, you can’t just jump in and go 100%. And if there has been a weakness there, then this becomes even more important. You body heals to meet the demands put opon it, so even if you do find it niggles it a little, you might just need to take it steady and build slowly as it will allow you to. Just make sure you listen to your body and learn to recognise when it’s saying it’s done enough for today.

    Until you try it, you will never know!! Just be carefull!

    Like I said, I don’t anything about Hernia’s so this is just my oppinion, but I hope it makes sense!!

    Good Luck,
    Sarah.
