    I used to get very painful calf cramps, they often would wake me up in the middle of the night. I started using a foam roller and haven't had any since.

    I get them rarely, but sometimes we all have the tendancy to stretch weird, and the cramp springs up. I don't think there is any worse pain than to wake up in the middle of the night with a charlie horse.

    I used to/still do get calf cramps occassionally... I used to get them more often, but I don't as much anymore... It would always be at night, or when I was waking up that I'd have problems with it. I've heard a symptom of creatine usage is possible muscle cramps, and I am taking less creatine now than I was when I got cramps more often. I have also heard upping potassium helps.
