Muscle cramps are an uncomfortable symptom characterized by painful, involuntary contractions of a muscle. They're usually over within a few seconds to a few minutes. Intense exercise, neuromuscular abnormalities, medical conditions, an electrolyte imbalance, medication use, and dehydration are thought to be common contributors. Eating nutrient-dense foods rich in particular vitamins and minerals can help decrease muscle cramping and prevent it from occurring in the first place.

Every exercise performed in the gym can be related back to movements we all do in real life. We all push, pull, flex, extend, squat, lunge, bend, and twist throughout each and every day. Most exercises are predominately in one plane more than the others. Imagine each plane as a plate of glass that cuts the body into either front/back, left/right, or top/bottom halves.... Then imagine each of those plates to be a track that the body is moving on, like a monorail. If a movement seems to mostly track along one plate over the others, it can be classified as being predominately in that plane of motion.

We just want to let you know that we see you, we notice.
