Nothing.

A. I'm still working off last weekend.

B. For lunch had a club sub from Jersey Mikes.

I think next time we have a hot turkey I'm going to see if I can 2 'tater skins (see earlier) instead of fries or mashed.

Considering Leslie is opening the refrigerator door right now maybe desert would have been a good idea.

I could have posted in this thread all night long, except for no beer or wine. After installing insulation all weekend, I couldn't sleep due to muscle pain and "Charlie Horses".

I learned about this product from runners forums. I get leg cramps like crazy after my Levaquin drug reaction.

Lots of water and bananas. I think it's the potassium that helps.

Pete,

The interesting thing is when you get really into it the medical community has no concrete answer why cramping occurs. And my particular situation where Levaquin stripped out the magnesium out of my cells and may have permanently damaged their ability to store it so I hype on mag. My potassium levels are fine and most time if I add P I get heart rhythm issues.

Water, mag, P, electrolytes all can be contributors to the issue. There are some sport teams that feed pickles to athletes before a game to prevent cramps, weird science.

Yesterday I was doing a lot of leg work while painting so I knew I had high cramp potential, just like planting transplants or hot days at the farm. So in addition to the mass quantity of water I normally consume, I add in Gatoraid and the mag creme on my legs when I go to bed.

But Pete's point is correct, you need to find your individual cause.

I'll PM so we can swap info.
Pete,
I was trying to send you some PM's, but your box is full.

Mine were caused by a combination of overworked muscles and lack of water and food. Yesterday I had a bowl of cereal before I left in the morning and when I got home at 11pm, my wife was sleeping and I didn't want to wake her up so I had a couple more bowls of frosted flakes.

There are issues with the shipping part .

USPS won't ship, UPS will only ship if you open a contract with them, and FEDEX is the same. Dumb......
Hmmmm, I know someone who ships mead all the time. Not sure how or whom he uses.

I sometimes can't remember names so I like to save some messages so remember who the heck I was talking to about whatever. But I dumped some so it should be OK now.
Package should be enroute.

But I've heard it gives you dreams your a race stallion rented out for breeding. I don't need the wife throwing a bucket on cold water on me while I sleep.

The ultimate field of dreams.
