That is one that I've considered after the first time I experienced horrific cramping overnight after a fencing competition. We do enjoy avocadoes, so I just make sure I have one after fencing and by night time I'm okay. I know other folks who swear by magnesium, even spray-on for leg cramps.Magnesium for leg cramps at night; it works.
You might also try a banana along with an avocado. I too fence (foil) and experienced leg cramps after particularly vigorous sessions, which is what started me on magnesium. I’ve not come across spray-on magnesium, but will keep an eye out for it and give it a try.That is one that I've considered after the first time I experienced horrific cramping overnight after a fencing competition.

I do have a banana, or two, prior to poule rounds which helps stave off stiffness while we wait for the eliminations to start. I'll usually finish off with a couple and then go home. I have had leg cramps driving home from fencing, which is torture! Avocado, once home and by night .... sound. Thanks for the suggestion. En garde!You might also try a banana along with an avocado.

Many say they like avocadoes, they taste like paste to me, like eating something that's not food.That is one that I've considered after the first time I experienced horrific cramping overnight after a fencing competition.

Banana, better than zinc pills.You might also try a banana along with an avocado. I too fence (foil) and experienced leg cramps after particularly vigorous sessions, which is what started me on magnesium. I’ve not come across spray-on magnesium, but will keep an eye out for it and give it a try.
which magnesium? citrate or malate?Magnesium for leg cramps at night; it works. Vitamin D because I’m old. Both were recommended by my GP.

Being an epee fencer, it's all bouncing on the ankles, so MSM supplementation is no doubt in my future ...
i find avocados really bland tbh, not sure what all the fuss is about them tbhMany say they like avocadoes, they taste like paste to me, like eating something that's not food.
Per the label on the bottle, oxide, malate and glycerophosphatewhich magnesium? citrate or malate?
been thinking about taking magnesium too
My approach, driven by scientific research in macro-biology, is to consume as much food as i can, of as many different types as i can.
My digestive system is trained to filter out the good stuff and sends it round my body, to my organs, bones and skin, whilst simultaneously sending the bad stuff + the waste to my A***Hole.
It a mightily impressive system that i have been using for as long back as i can remember. I get a reminder signal in my stomach when more food needs to be ingested into my eco-processing unit.

Unfortunately, sometimes the filter gets confused, and sends the bad stuff to the hole beneath the nose which then excites the vocal cords.My approach, driven by scientific research in macro-biology, is to consume as much food as i can, of as many different types as i can.
