PP7 cramp issues
Posted on 9/29/10 at 9:52 pm

I am no athletic trainer, hence the question. I have heard some state that PP7 is in the 5% body fat range and that this could be the reason for cramping. The inability to retain the fluids before a game.
Is that feasible? If it is, is there a way to fix this? I think we should use Tyran to spell him on 1st down from time to time and alternate him and RR on punts to help the issue. Tyran is more than capable of locking down a corner when he has to, and PP7 could do the punt returning when it looks like we could either gain really good field position or even score.
Just my useless thoughts

I completely agree that this is the best alternative - the previous ClientNumbers 1 through 8 were never as good as you

a lot of new research out is indicating that muscle cramps have less to do with hydration/electrolytes and more to do with the nervous system and a disruption of its ability to control muscle. Ive heard he has had this problem all his life....might be something he is genetically predisposed to

he's not 5% bf, but i'd bet he's around 8-9% which is pretty damn great, and definitely low enough to cramp up after strenuous physical activity in the heat

Less body fat = less fluid retention = more dehydration. He can't take in enough fluids orally. We would need to keep him on an IV drip when he leaves the field.

I know this might sound stupid, but why wouldn't they want to fatten him up just a touch more? I wouldn't think 11-12% at the same weight would hurt his game that much, and if he can stay on the field more the more NFL teams will value him.

That other thread with video of him on offense in high school shows him leaving the game with cramps.

I think they should just make it standard procedure to give him an IV at halftime since it seems his cramps always come early in the 2nd half.

That's what I was saying at work yesterday.

Halftime? Why not during the game?
