Sounds like your are having a problem with your potassium levels. When they are real low, your body will cramp bad. Also this effect comes from diuretics also. ECA sometimes can mimic that effect by taking potassium out of your body. Get you a potassium supplement or eat a ton of bananas. I had this problem before also. That seem to do the trick.

I had this problem 2 years ago when I took 100 pink D's. The cramping was out of control. If I opened my mouth wide to take a bite out of a sandwhich my jaw muscles would cramp. Anything I flexed too long would cramp up. I drank tons of water and took extra potassium but the problem never subsided until I was off the D's. IP: Logged |

also add calcium and potasim both as your body is being robbed of these two key components. increase water consumption and try to keep your legs elevated at night to keep blood flowing into quads. i also eat raisns when i cramp as they are a natural source of potassium. when i competed i was popping tons of potasium and still cramped but I lacked calcium kicked that in and i was fine. good luck IP: Logged |

Hey bro.....you are most certainly having a problem with potassium levels. You'll never get enough from consuming bananas....get some potassium tabs. I told my doctor I was getting constant foot cramps (didn't let him know it was induced by clen) and he wrote a script for 1000mg potassium tabs. IP: Logged |
