Why does my calf hurt so much??

[NewMuscle83]

Is it the Clen? I've been on this cycle (my 1st) for a week and a half now. by the 3rd day, I started experiencing pain in my left calf. I have a high thresh hold for pain, so I'm not being a little wuss here, it truly is painfull! It happens every single evening, around the same time, like clockwork. It lasts anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes, maybe longer, but I always make myself go to sleep so I don't notice it anymore.

Is this common with Clen? I read somewhere that you can cramp up without enough fluids while cycling clen, but I have been drinking enough water.

clen can cause cramping, but it would be wierd for it to happen at the same time every day.....When are you taking your clen, and how much...

You calf as in your baby cow? Or your calves?



lol...sorry i couldn't resist

[edmen2]

it may be the clen and yes u need plenty of fluids. your not dehydrated ur losing electrolytes so u need more than plain water. try half gatorade and half water combo and see if that helps.

[Emilio_Rebenga]

to answer your question, i kno someone who had the same problem and he upped his potasium and it went away...try doing that and see if it works

[jstraw428]

I would rather take potassium suplemnets to help with the cramping.....gatorade is just crap calories......

Maybe you are over working the muscles on the Calves

take some taurine, 5g a day as well as upping your water intake.

clen depletes taurine production in the liver which causes the cramping

powerade zero is loaded with potassium and sodium and it tastse awesome..it just comes in grape, strawberry and some kind of berry blend.

I think it happens around the same time because I take my clen at the same time every day.

Here is my schedule of dosing;

Day 1- 60mg
Day 2- 60mg
Day 3- 60mg
Day 4- 80mg
Day 5- 80mg
Day 6- 80mg
Day 7- 100mg
Day 8- 100mg
Day 9- 100mg
Day 10- 120mg
Day 11- 120mg (today)
Day 12- 120mg
Day 13- 100mg
Day 14- 80mg

I split them into 3 doses, one at 8:30 am, then at 12:15 pm, and finally at 4:00 pm.

I take a multi-vitamin, which has potassium, but I guess it's not enough. I don't want to add Gatoraide, it's not gonna go well with my diet, but I will check out this powderaide stuff if it's carb and sugar free.

Thanks for the input.

Love bananas! And it is true about oral multi-vitamins, but it's kinda hard to eat all that in regular food. Is there a way I can main line them? Like b12 shots with other vitamins in there?!

potassium and Taurine
Taurine is essential 2 grams a day should do it. It's cheap too.
