to answer a question I've just picked up. Yes - any 'athlete' who uses steroids looses credibility because of their chemical little helper.

@natalieedwardsvideos Not in bodybuilding. In bodybuilding it is part of the sport. Bodybuilding is about pushing the human body past its natural limitations with a combination of a deep knowledge of diet, exercise, physiology AND chemistry.

It's not "cheating" in this context. It's as necessary to the upper levels of the sport as a supercharged engine is to a race car driver.

I cramped one time, and dramatic music played in the background.

@TheTrollOfTheTube If you ever hear scary music start to play...get the hell out of there!!

He needs 2-3 sodium spoons put in water glass and drink it, he has electrolyte

dis-balance, that's causing muscles to cramp.

Try a little pickle juice (1/4 cup), then a glass of water, or pedialyte (less sugar than gatorade/powerade

[ZeusAlvarado2009]

@BuRninsh like salt? Will this seriously help because I have been having alot of cramps after sprinting, and its really inhibiting me from reaching my full potential. I have tried stretching but that does not seem to help very much.

lol the guy at 1:36 is like "i got my own problems man" HAHAHahah

[TheGuyWhoPlays4FUN]

U know the best feeling???.......its when u get a cramp in ur calf in the middle of the night, and then as soon as it goes away it s like heaven.

Just another reminder how complex the electrolyte balance really is. Not just about water/potassium/magnesium/calc­ium/zinc intake, etc. All sorts of things come into play. Poor guy!
