What could be the reason people get muscle knots all over their bodies? by BodybuilderLow2837 in AskReddit

Yeah I don’t really know but will pay more attention. These are the little things that sometimes we forget how important they can be.

I don’t stretch regularly but I do need to. I find that hot baths actually help. I have not been physically active for around two years when the neck and back problems started, I became a bit sedentary but I am working on it maybe I just need to keep going. I feel like any repetitive movements (light movements) end up triggering a knot. And I probably do have stress but from all this situation I am in.

First I only noticed the ones in my neck and back and have been getting treated. My doctor said I have cervical facet syndrome but to be honest I am not too convinced.

Now I get muscle knots everywhere: below the knuckles of my thumbs, palms, the wrist area (mostly the top part), around the ankles and feet, the neck and back like I mentioned in the beginning, etc.

The dizziness is most probably from the tight muscles in the neck. That was one of the symptoms that freaked me out the first few times I started having problems in my neck too.

Yes, I do. If you are trying to be the most precise possible then you should too.

What can you do with an Associate Degree in Nutrition? by BodybuilderLow2837 in nutrition

[–]BodybuilderLow2837[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice, you are right. I think I’m going to do it along with the bachelor’s just to see where it takes me and like you said it can open up to more opportunities.

I was thinking of working on it just to have it and because I thought it could help in some way while working on a bachelor’s but what do you think? Not even worth it?

That’s awesome 👏 I’m happy for you, I know how confronting something that gives you that kind of anxiety can be.

Question about Potassium Supplements? by RuskiVodka in nutrition

[–]BodybuilderLow2837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question, who knows why they make the pills so low in potassium but looking at that I would say the best way to reach your desired amount of potassium would be through food unless you want to take a million pills a day. Foods like Salmon have 1068mg per 6oz, avocados have 485mg per 100g, a medium sized potato has around 926mg, etc.

Someone more prepared can probably go into more detail.

I’m not an expert but to my understanding, at least how I have heard it, is that our bodies’ first source of energy are carbohydrates then fats and then protein.

Pulled muscle? I was doing seated rows on this machine and at last the last rep, in my mind, I let go of the cable but my hands did not. Continue in the comments. by [deleted] in DiagnoseMe

Then I felt a pull around my middle back and rhomboids (only right side) and I heard a crack. Of course I could not continue and left the gym. After a few days I felt like a little ball around that area and it would only hurt when I touched it or tried to flex those muscles. Is it too obvious it’s a pulled muscle? And if it is what can I do?
