It can be due to low salt

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
It is good that you have started gym. Problem which your are facing is common and I see lot of such patients in my OPD. Two most common causes are one lack of salt in body and second is lack of warm up.
So I have following suggestions for the.
1. Take salt lemonade during workout.
2. Do proper warmup before doing exercise.
3. Tablet carnisure for one month after discussing with your doctor.
I hope these measures will help you in body spasm. Let me know if you want to ask any other questions. Thanks and take care.
