Fitter Radio Episode 522 - Dr Kevin Miller: Challenging the Myths About Cramping

Dr. Kevin Miller is a Professor in the Dept of Health & Human Performance at Texas State University

In this episode we chat to Dr Miller about the complex topic of exercise-induced muscle cramping. We separate fact from fiction and challenge some long-standing myths around muscle cramping.

Dr Miller shares his knowledge of the physiology, prevention, and treatment of cramping, and explains how this led to his in-depth research into the topic. His findings in relation to sweat and electrolyte loss, the role of the central nervous system and dehydration provide some new insights into cramping and how it's not a one-size-fits-all scenario.

Finally, we explore how stress, nutrition and sleep can all contribute to cramping and discuss the importance of keeping a cramping diary to identify individual patterns and key mitigating factors.
