I have got operated two times for Inguinal hernia 7-8 years back and now I am considering joining gym and doing some weight training. I have heard that if you do weight training there is a chance of getting the hernia again, is this true ? Can you please help me as I really need to work out as I am getting health issues due to my sedentary lifestyles Thank you so much

Your problem is to make yourself fit because your fed up with sedentary life style.so you can do many excersise except weight training like jogging,fast walk,streching,yoga etc.whatever you do one thing always remember that when you do any physical activity  must wear supporter .if you are over weight then first burn your exyra fat then you  can do some weight training.
