Leg Cramps & Calf Cramps - Riding the Charley Horse

A thought provoking article on leg cramps at night

Sure there are many theories about why people get leg cramps, especially calf cramps, at night.

People most affected are seniors and people who have a heavy training schedule.

While there may be many causes for cramp, remember having serious calf cramps and leg cramps isn't all doom and gloom - because there are also many opportunities for cure :)

The trick is to 'stay healthy' . . . and just because you may be fit, doesn't mean you are in good health.

Healthy circulation, healthy muscle tone through low impact exercise, healthy nutritional plan through eating lots of fresh fruits and vegetables (and a supplement plan to top up those extra minerals lost through sweat / not absorbed as well as we get older) and a healthy treatment plan (including how to self massage) are all part of the cure for leg cramps and calf cramps at night.
