Has anyone ever experienced muscles twitching after workouts?
After boxing workouts I get the shakes - not ‘I haven’t had any sugar’ shakes, i can feel my muscles twitching. Is that normal? It’s not painful at all.. but it does feel odd. They’ve been twitching for 10 minutes so far.

Oh yeah! And lately I’ve been a little twitchy during recover from my workouts! I can feel the muscle is somewhat sore, and when I stretch more it seems to stop the twitching. Maybe some stretching will work for you?
Good luck and stay motivated!

Thanks! I’m glad I’m not alone on the twitch front! I seem to gain muscle fast - but haven’t had as much twitching after workouts as I have lately. I’ll give stretching a go! Cheers agian.

It took me a little bit to figure out what you were talking about when you said ‘twitching’, but thats probally the best way to describe it. I usually feel that when I work the same muscle for an extended period of time, maybe throughout the whole routine, but I agree, stretching does help.

definitely go into a cool down mode after your workouts…this will help..during your cool down, just try to slow down the heart rate out of the "zone" and then move into some stretching once your heart rate has slowed..this will help tremendously.

Awesome advice - thank you
I haven’t been stretching as much as I probably should!

I twitch depending on the workout and the weights I’m using. Legs and arms are especially like that. Chest evey now and again. I also find it bad after running over 15 kms. Usually lasts a little while or until I finish stretching.
