In 2 weeks of regular swimming (2-3x weekly), I've gotten myself to over a half mile already. My speed has increased noticeably. From a tip I already picked up out here, my freestyle form is much more rythmic, and my *** stroke has is starting to take on the early signs of a butterfly.
But I've been having some really nasty cramping issues in my calves. I mean horrific pain and knotting.
What's a good way to combat that? Is it the water temperture that causes it? (the pool I swim in will never be mistaken for a jacuzzi)
Any tips or advice will be greatly appreciated.
I agree w/Gigi. Last year when I started it lasted 1-2mos and then disappeared for good.
That would be an easy solution, but doesn't work for me. I workout year-round, so don't begin or end a season, and my cramps don't discriminate in when they'll visit. Could happen to me in June or January.
