■ Leg Cramp

Muscle cramps may occur due to overexertion, fatigue, dehydration, or exposure to cold water.
Proper stretching before the dive and wearing appropriate thermal protection can help reduce the risk of cramps.

If you experience a calf cramp, grasp the tip of your fin and gently pull it toward you to stretch the muscle.

If the cramp affects the sole of your foot, hold the fin blade and carefully extend the foot upward to relieve tension.

If you experience a cramp in the front of the thigh, bend your knee and gently pull your ankle toward your hip to stretch the muscle.

After the cramp subsides, modify your finning technique to help prevent recurrence and reduce strain on the affected muscles.
