Extreme Spasms post workout - wtf?

[Act of God]

It seems that whenever I do hammer curls I get really bad spasms in my forearms later that night. They happen anytime I bend my elbow, and go away when i keep my arms more or less straight.

The spasms are in both forearms in the same spot, right on top where the forearm meets the elbow. the muscle that flexes when you raise your wrist up towards the ceiling.

is this due to some sort of deficiency?

are they unpainful spasms or is it more so that your muscles lock up and hurt alot?

[Act of God]

they hurt when the spasm comes, usually if i hold my arm at a 90 degree angle. They definitely lock up, its not just unvoluntary twitches

[pelly789]

are you taking any dieuretics like coffee or an eca stack the problem is your probaly dehydrated try adding some foods with potassium throughout the day like bananas and drink more water and see if it still happens my muscles use to lock up and hurt really bad when i was dehydrated

you just answered your own question

clen depletes taurine and water from your system..both contributing to spasms/cramps..I had them big time when I was on clen...but after taking taurine 2g/day, the cramps disappeared

cheers

Get yourself a lot of bananas eat at least 2-3 ED

Taurine also really helps with cramping

Whats up act of god, I used to get this all of the time back in the day especially at night, my arms would lock up and i would even get numb hands during sleep could be one of 2 things... dehydrated or bloated check ur piss if its dark or cloudy ur dehydrated if its clear your bloated...I agree with pelly add the bananas, h2o if dehydrated, and a anti inflamitory like Advil but I prefer Aleve 300-400mg.
