experienced extreme cramping of my vastus medialis in both legs today after a squat workout. i was sitting in a restaurant eating for about 30 mins, then got up to use the restroom.
as i was walking to the restroom, both legs cramped all of a sudden. had to limp my way over to the stall, and posted myself up against the wall. intense cramping and pain lasted about 3-4 minutes, and my legs went completely stiff. could barely move them
first time that's ever happened to me. probably one of the scariest moments of my life LOL. now i have a feel for what a heart attack would be like...
i'm gonna go see the doc about this... has anybody else experienced this?
i just did a random 3x6, then a 3x3. i've only been squatting consistently for about 2 months now, after decreasing course load in school and working less so i'm not fatigued all the time
it felt like my quads were just gonna snap; shit was scary
maybe it has something to do with my poor diet? i'm probably not getting enough potassium
Yup it has happened a few times to me in the past. I remember both my legs cramped up really badly while walking up the stairs to my house and I had to sit outside on the balcony for a good 15 minutes cause I couldn't move lol
Stay hydrated, and it is extremely crucial that you spend some time to stretch after every workout.
Other than that, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Nope not at the moment. Been doing whatever squatting 2-3x a week after having that knee issue, but I kinda have an idea on how to go about it after looking at several programs.

There are no principles, there are only events. There is no good and bad, there are only circumstances. The superior espouses events and circumstances in order to guide them.
lol speak of the devil I had my knee act up again, so I had to cut my workout.
Was going to go for a new squat max but I almost bailed on 315.
But yes, I did see a chiro when I first mentioned it here. He confirmed that there were no damages to the ligament or tendon, but rather some muscle imbalances; specifically inactivation of the glute medius.
It makes sense because it's not necessarily pain, but rather discomfort and weakness around the area. I also get hip discomfort accompanying it.
Been doing a lot of glute med exercises for warmup and post training, and I believe it has been helping.
I don't get pain from front squats and they actually feel VERY good.
For you physio pros, can you conclude anything based on this information?

lol i know that feel man...
it sounds so redundant, but i really think the root cause of it all is muscle imbalances...

Weigh it the way you eat it... 45g cooked would be a crazy small portion (like 2 or 3 bites) and would be about 13g carbs
How did you calculate 13g of carbs?
AFAIK,the macros for rice stay the same whether water is added to it or not. Water also makes rice weigh heavier so 45g cooked does NOT equal 45g rice uncooked / 36g carbs (according to the nutrition label)?
hit a big PR today at a powerlifting meet in squats and deadlift.
391.3 lbs squat here in 66KG/145.5lb weight class unequipped IPF
ended up also hitting a 203.9lbs bench and 440.9lb deadlift.
totalled 1036.1lbs this meet.
I have officially completed my new years resolution of competing and hitting over 1000lb total.
Yep! Signing up for Provincials that's end of this june. Thought my bench improved a lot more then it actually did.
Weight cut must've effected it more than I anticipated.
TFW you haven't worked out in 5 days and eating well under 2000 calories/day due to finals
Last exam in 2 hours
I never understood this. Shouldnt you be eating a caloric surplus during finals? For me at least I start eating the worst shit like McDicks and other fast food cuz its quick, during finals. I think I gained 8 pounds last finals lmao
