Re: cramps/muscle spasms

For the last month or so I've been getting lower back spasms or my calves will knot up on me some nights to the point where I'm pacing the house rather than laying down at bedtime because I feel tightness like I'm about to cramp. And when I do, OMG I fly out of bed in horrible pain. I'm plenty hydrated and have increased my potassium and electrolytes but to no avail. I've lost 28 lbs in last 4 months and the last 10 has really been when I've noticed the issue. I'm at about 12% and want to get to about 8% before I'm done cutting. Currently taking 250 mgs of sust, 100 mgs of masteron-p and 200 mgs of EQ every 3-4 days. I got off the winny-v but that hasn't helped. Any thoughts on what I can take to ease the cramps? I really don't want to back off my supplement or training regime.

Dehydration... u need to balance your sodium, potassium, magnesium or start supplementing them aka electrolytes and a magnesium and potassium supp.

Since many guys do hydrate pretty good who lift I also can’t suggest taurine enough for your issue. Try 2-3 grams a day to start my buddy uses 4grams daily for back cramping on gear. It’s a common side!

Taurine and balance your minerals.

yep taurine is great. start at 2-3g and increase it from there if need be. i am pretty sure this happens to all of us that train really hard and it sucks ass big time

Re: cramps/muscle spasms

I have heard the same taurine and potassium?? I hate it when I feel like I gotta stretch and just cant?? Even thinking about it sucks.

In the past taurine has helped. Some say it is for back pumps but I have fount it helps with all cramping. I always keep some around.
