Had a crazy cramp last night

[HydroEJP88]

So there I was. Sleeping like a baby for once. I woke up when momma was getting a bottle for one of the boys, well needless to say I suddenly get a massive cramp in my lat. Felt like a baseball, like legit. Well I rubbed it out and positioned myself in bed to where I put pressure on it.

Seemed to work because it quit hurting and I passed back out. Worked all day long, came home and trimmed up my trees with a pole saw. No pain whatsoever. Then my wife asked me what I did you my back. It's right by the rear delt and lat. Little bendy area. Well needless to say that cramp I had turned into a massive bruise last night.

I've been experienced this before but I'm assuming it's because I started lifting again Monday, but yesterday was chest day?

I pull my hammy fairly often, and the whole back of leg from ass cheek to back of knee bruises, don't know if that's comparable. Some kind of trauma to the lat or connecting tissues maybe?

The pic didn't work Hydro. If it is what I think it is, a lat pull down should hurt like hell but a lower cable row would bother it only slightly. Is the bruise under the rear delt/arm pit area?

Yours is a little higher then mine. I did mine DLing. Felt it go and dropped the weight. I can say, the recover was quick. A week off all back work and started back light.

It definitely felt like a cramp. I don't know what else it would have been because I was sleeping when it happened. I could see if I was pulling some heavy weight or something but nope I was sawing logs lol

Yours definitely looks like it hurt a lot more than mine. I wasn't even lifting. Unless I was going for a PR in my dreams lol

I honestly was thinking the same thing this morning. I drink water all day long but maybe I was flushing my system of the good stuff

Honestly it doesn't hurt at all. I even did some stuff leg deads with bent over row. Felt great

Luckily I haven't had any cramps in months,
A few aches and pains here and there but no random cramps....

That's exactly what happens to me. I push water hard when on cycle and believe I flush my system a bit too much.

Kill a couple of small gatorades (low sugar of course) over the next couple of days and see if that helps..? Best of luck to you bud.

Damn I have never seen what appears to be a tear after a cramp... Drink some pickle juice and eat a couple bananas for Christ's sake.
