It's good to dream.....Originally Posted by Tri Girl
In the meantime, anything that helps me beat the boys in the pool makes me feel good. (Terrible, I know)
I guess the good news in this thread is that cramped swimmers aren't alone!!
I have had the toes crossing thing someone else mentioned, so I guess it's kind of like cramps. Feels like my toes are frozen connected for a second, but I haven't had to stop, just shake it out.

I used to get toe and foot cramps from not completely extending my knees doing freestyle.

Pickles
I know it sounds crazy... but if you eat a pickle (or drink pickle juice) before swimming it should take care of those cramps! I am a competitive swimmer and never really have problems with cramps but my teammates do and it has worked wonders for them... Give it a try!
