Ok, so tonight I went to a yoga-lates class and this was my fourth time to be in attendance. Other than the fact that I am pitifully out of shape, I didn't have many problems. But tonight, I kept getting some serious Charlie horses in my calves, and my hips, thighs, and the arches of my feet cramped up, too. It got so bad that I would have to just lay there for awhile while everyone else kicked around because I literally couldn't move and felt like I was going to die or scream or cry or something. It sucked! What causes Charlie horses and why would I have had them so bad tonight and not the other nights? And what (besides bananas) is a good way to prevent or get rid of them? And why the heck is it called a Charlie horse anyway?
