Thinking this was ok IF I don’t perform Valsalva…thoughts? I’m holding for 10-30 seconds

When did you get your operation?

No operation yet…holding steady at 5 cm

The short answer is that if you have to hold your breath during an exercise, you shouldn’t be doing it. If you can breath through it, it’s probably okay. But I’d check with your doctor just the same.
