Post Tram Flap Exercises For Abdomen?

Sun, 28 Feb 2010 09:49:05 +0000

Hi
I went through a double mast. with immediate reconstruc -via tram flap. I think women should be informed that this is NOT an added benefit of a “Tummy Tuck” while undergoing a mastectomy. Whoever came up with that notion is sadly mistaken.
It looks fine when you come out of surgery, but the rectus muscle is gone making it hard to tone up the abdominal region long afterward. I do have an abdomial mesh.
I lost a great deal of weight after the surgery ( 40 Lbs) but my tummy still looks bloated ( Pot Belly) and I would like to find some exercise or something which I can tone it all up.
The missing muscle makes sit ups impossible….. Any SAFE Ideas??

Help / Advice – Going About A Routine To Flatten And Harden My Stomach.?

Wed, 24 Feb 2010 10:03:16 +0000

I don’t just want a flat stomach like most women, but i’d like to get it hard as well and really work it.
Id love to know exactly what type of exercises I should be doing on it, how many (reps, etc) and how often! since I’m hopeless.
I do have some fat, and im working on getting rid of it with exercise…. so should I start toning now? or wait until there’s less fat surrounding my stomach??
Thank you!

Exercises Making You Bulky??

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 10:02:56 +0000

So everybody sings the praises of the proper push up, its a great work out and move as it works all the muscles. Then why are so many women afraid to do it often – I’ve heard them say I’ll develop a big upper body, huge shoulders (deltoids) etc, and I really don’t want that to be the case.
Is that why so many women just deprive themselves of food, because working out and toning can make you a little bulky looking?! That’s not an option for me, I like food too much.
Help me out – how does one tone and get stronger without becoming bulky?

Effects Of Estroven Herbal Supplement In Men?

Thu, 18 Feb 2010 09:51:27 +0000

I have seen a few questions here recently about the effects of estroven herbal supplement in men.
Some of the answers seemed a bit off so as a gay male bottom who does take it I thought I would provide my experience with it.
First off, I have no intention to change my sex fully. The reason I started taking it two months ago was based on advice from a friend.
My goal is to generally soften my overall appearance and it has definitely worked.
I take two maximum strength tablets daily.
Contrary to what others say, I have actually lost weight, I went from about 165 to 148 in two months.
However, even though I workout a lot, mostly toning exercises, my bodyfat has actually increased.
My hips are bigger mostly fat and chest flabbier though my waist has actually gotten thinner.
Pre-estroven, my chest/waist/hips were 40-32-36, now its 38-28-40. I stand 5′7, so the hips actually appear larger.
Other side effects, less facial and body hair growth. I’m asian so I did not have much facial/body hair to begin with, now its even less.
Skin is much softer. Significantly reduced sexual desires – I used to get erections daily and masturbate daily, now its about once a week.
Penis actually shrunk a half inch from 5′” to 4.5″, testicles smaller also. Also, my erections never get fully hard like before, now its semi-hard with a lot of effort.
For the people asking, estroven is actually a natural estrogen replacement for menopausal women, those with reduce estrogen.
So yes, it will increase the estrogen level in men.
But, its probably not strong enough for those that want to go all the way and change from male to female.
ps:I’m not a very sexual person, but I get hit on a lot from gay tops even before taking estroven.
After taking estroven, I get hit on significantly more sometimes very aggressively.
I’m kind of picky so I ignore most, but be prepared for more attention if you are a bottom, sometimes unwanted…

Could Models Still Work After They Have Kids?

Fri, 12 Feb 2010 09:53:17 +0000

Because pregnancy and childbirth does take a toll on a woman’s body physically. However, could they still continue their careers as long as they stayed in shape while they’re on maternity leave by dieting correctly, exercising and working out. I know of women who looked better after they had children when they’re bodies were toned up again. Do you also know of any Models who had their own families and were able to keep their jobs after firming up while temporarily absent. If yes, who were they?
