Do you suffer with leg cramps in the night regularly Nath?I suffered with them for a few months quite severly in my 20's for some reason.I was told that you're likely to suffer from night cramps if you have low levels of magnesium, potassium, calcium and sodium,or a raised level of lactic acid.This has never been proven but many times ive heard that a Sodium deficiency is one of the main culprits.With regards to your leg session,it might actually do some good to get them pumped up and full of blood,thats JMO though.Take it steady if you do decide to go ahead.
