First, good luck in your recovery, planks are your friend. And yoga, but of course take it easy to start.

Second, you should name the place and the instructor, I've been around athletes my entire life and I've seen many abs strains, but a tear/rupture is pretty rare unless you are doing some serious lifting or maybe wrestling.

Thank you so much! Pilates Plus by the Bulldog. Savannah was the instructor. Tried to get them to pay medical bills....no luck. Would not admit any fault whatsoever. Horrible place. I literally looked 8 months pregnant with a eggplant colored abdomen within two days. Dr at BR Clinic had me do MRI and even sent me to a surgeon. Has been a very painful, long, drawn out experience. Do NOT go to Pilates Plus.

It was VERY serious. Dr Fontenot and Dr Froelich at BR Clinic both saw me and were visibly shocked. They both said this is like having a C-section (which I did not have when I had my son), but worse because it tore internally.
