Muscle Cramps

I hate these f*cking things. I get them so bad. In high school, I was dubbed the "Cramp King" because I had muscle cramps all of the time. Most commonly in the calves but I've had them all over. For a while people were calling me "Midal Man" during track in college. Last night after a couple hours of basketball, I went to the movies with some friends. My palm kept cramping while I was driving and then we were late arriving at the movies. I jumped out of the car and barked at everybody that we need to run because we were late. Right then, both of my quads completely cramped up and I couldn't move. They took a distorted shape and all I could do was sit there in the parking lot screaming obsenities like, "F*CK!!!!!" They do look badass though when your muscles become all distorted and shit though.

.......... hurt like a bee-atch.

use ice and get a massage 😉

Yeah one time i was sitting in class and i got a cramp and the teacher sent me to the princpal

I do ice. Everyday I practice (during track season). We have physical therapists for our athletic department so they are always treating me. I even take potassium pills along with eating 2 bananas a day to make them less severe but I still get them REALLY bad.

stretch first...

and, maybe after...

build it all up or something?

I do that too.

put bags of ice and tape them on like Greg Ostertag...or hire a personal trainer...

I've always had a theory of an unlikely possibility for why I get them so much more than anybody else I've ever met. I was a severe asthmatic when I grew up. Its pretty much completely under control now but my small air-ways are always closed off. This really doesn't appear to effect me, but I'm wondering if since muscle cramps are caused by a lack of oxygen to the muscles, maybe its caused by me not using my lungs to their full potential.

Yep and yep. Like I said, our team has trainers and they do tape ice to us.

I've had some last up to about 20 minutes. I remember the first time I ever had one. I was probably about 12 and it happened in the middle of the night. I just woke up screaming and crying so loud. I thought my calf was exploding or something.
