Well, think about it, when do cramps come up?

And you give a big…

Derd stretching

Yeah… they usually happen after a morning stretch or lots of physical activity.

But why?

Well, as you may know your body has muscles…

And they can expand and contract.

Thanks to nerve signals sent from the brain.

Allowing us to… do stuff like…

Walking

Groovying

And lifting weights

But there's a problem!

Sometimes these nerve signals come in hard and fast due to dehydration, over exercise, under exercise, or just getting old.

So these nerve signals come in All at once!

Causing muscle fibers to all contract uncontrollably.

Aka a cramp!

But don't worry.

They usually only last like 7 seconds…
