Title: Re: Dehydration / heat exhaustion Post by solotripper on Sep 5th, 2011 at 1:33pm Quote:
;D Better to be pissed off than pissed on ;) Speaking of dehydration/ muscle cramping, did anyone see that video of Pro Tennis player Rafael Nidal suffering a Charley Horse at the post game interview :'( Just shows that even a professional athlete with all their support can find themselves the victim of dehydration. Fortunately he probably had off camera help to massage his cramp out. Anyone that has ever had a leg cramp while alone, knows how difficult and painful is to relieve. Imagine that happening on the trail solo, it could put you in a real bad way. I've had a few calf cramps in middle of night that left me struggling to stretch out. I even keep a old leather belt in a loop hanging on my bedpost to loop over toe area and stretch the cramp out if needed. I drink a lot but sometimes even that isn't enough. |
