I know some coaches have people on their team hit the mustard hard and fast when muscles start cramping ... it worked ... I am so tired and am eyeing the bed now ... will summon my courage in a few minutes and lie back down ... I have salt and a coke beside the bed if the cramps return ... I over did it today working outside in the heat ... that is all it is

I've heard of both of these remedies for muscle cramps; glad to hear they work. I personally drink dill pickle juice, which works too. Sports coaches use this option for their players, which is how I heard about it.

To piggyback onto Fire's potassium post, eating a banana a day will reduce chronic muscle cramps because of the potassium content. Also, drinking enough water daily will help as well.
