Hello and thank you for asking us on HCM!

Muscular spasm are frequent in people who do hard works or lift weights. In most of the cases they are due to dehydration (liquids loss from hard work). Sometimes electrolytes disorders may be found in rutine blood tests, (for example normal values of calcium may change). Go for an electrolyte balance test to see if anything is not going right. Go through a balanced diet and drink enough liquids to prevent dehydration.

Take care. Best regards!
