2.Weightlifting
This activity involves numerous strenuous and repetitive movements, which puts stress on specific parts of the body for a long period of time. Certain positions and movements needed to lift the weights put pressure on the muscles of the body. The lining along the walls of the abdomen are weak without proper strength training. Moreover, the groin is a relatively weaker area of the abdomen, which makes it prone to hernias.
Excessive training can also lead to the development of a hernia. It is, therefore, advised to properly execute routines and to exhibit proper breathing techniques for the entire duration. Almost all exercises will require the use of the abdominal muscles, which is why it is important to mitigate the pressure put on this area. Weightlifting should be done through a controlled manner and progress using small increments in order to avoid shocking the body. Lifting weights should also be avoided before doing a complete warm-up.
