Got a cramp in my calf yesterday during some sparring drills and was wondering what you guys do to not get cramps? How much water should I drink everyday? during the training it was 1.5 minutes of pure offense and then 1.5 minutes of pure defense and during the defense part I was on the move alot. Using my legs and bobbing and weaving and then as the bell rang for the round to end a guy throws one more punch and as I move out of the way by pushing off my left foot, my calf gets stuck flexing pretty much and starts pulsing. What do you guys do to prevent these? I have gotten one once before during sparring and I think it might have been just dehyration. Just wondering what you guys take on these was.
ive never had that problem you should have at LEAST 2litres a day ideally go for more i have 4 lires a day sometimes more
I think you need .5-1oz of water for every pound of bocy weight. And probably more if you are working out. You also need food with potassium in it. Eat lots of bananas.
