Am I just the only one who thought that fall break went by so fast? I hope you all had a great fall break. I didn’t do much but had a chance to take one of my friends to pick up his car at Lebanon which was just one hour away and on my way back I experienced the worst muscle cramp ever. I wanted to stop but couldn’t because I was trying to keep up with him on the highway, since there was a 50/50 chance that the car would stall on him.
So, what would you do if you got a muscle pull on the road?
I decided to put my car on cruise and massaged my foot while driving. I know it’s not the right thing to do but it worked. However because my muscles were tensed up, I ended up cruising all the way.
When I arrived home, I went online to check on what to do to fix a muscle cramp, funny enough, there wasn’t a fix, however according to Khara Kanika, muscle cramps can be eliminated by regular stretching, staying hydrated and training gradually especially for people that are starting a workout routine.
I think next time, I might just stop and stretch.
I used to get really bad leg cramps at night. The only way I could get rid of them was to get out of bed and stand on my tiptoes on the cramping leg until it went away. I like the article you linked!
