:D OK,it went like this.Military press 10 sets of 10.Moved to dumbells.Bent over flys for rear delts.went from 25lbs to last set with 60lbs. then got a barbell ready for shoulder shrugs.I picked it up I thought in good form,and instantly my quads locked up like cement.I dropped the barbell and fell straight over in excruciating pain for about 15 minutes I could not even think about bending one of my legs.Then it was a slow process of bending then trying to stretch a little,and walk it off.I stretch my legs for 10-20 min b4 EVERY workout.Is that not enough??:confused:

Before I started adding a banana to every protein drink, I had cramps in my legs all the time... Nothing is worse than being in the middle of sex and having to jump up out of bed to "walk it off" ...That sucked!

hadthe same prob on my last cycle the winny makes me cramp all damn day. the trick is as much potassium and water as possible, potassium from banannas is much better then using a supplement, also theres alot being said about over stretching before a work out, stretching may not be as good for you as you think!
