Stretch
One of the best ways to avoid muscle cramps is to
warm up and stretch before exercising or playing
sports. If you miss out on stretching, you may
risk muscle strain and injury. Gentle massages,
slow stretches, heat and cold therapy play a
major role in preventing cramps.

Take it Slow
You should definitely start making gradual
changes in a way that your body can adapt to
them. No matter how slow the process gets, but it
is important to make sure you dont make any
hasty decisions. For instance, make gradual
changes in the type and intensity of exercise in
order to minimize muscle fatigue and potential
cramps.

Cut the Caffeine
Getting rid of muscle cramps doesnt really mean
to keep applying a fast relief gel. There are a
few things you can try like reduce the
consumption of the foods and drinks that contain
caffeine, like coffee and chocolate. Excessive
intake of caffeine and chocolate are sure to
result in untimely muscle cramps.

Eat your Greens
  • Healthy eating has a direct effect on your
    muscles. A muscle cramp means youre not getting
    the nutrients your body needs to function
    properly. Thus, it might be time you up your
    intake of healthy fruits and vegetables. If that
    doesn't do the trick, its time you consult your
    doctor.

Stay in Shape
  • One of the most important ways of keeping muscle
    cramps away is to work toward a better and fitter
    lifestyle and to do the flexibility exercises
    before and after your workout regularly. While
    exercise sounds a little boring, staying in shape
    helps majorly in keeping your muscles cramp-free.
