Well luckily my fingers still work after my Spartan Ultra Beast this weekend. Pretty much everything hurts right now to move, but I have enough left in my hands and fingers to type this latest week in review up. I hope these resources help you in your OCR Training.
Recovery Post of the Week
I put up a video from Justin Price last week and think he did another great job, so he made the list again this week. This video is designed for trainers working with clients, but really this is something that any can take away from. We all have movement issues that we should be working on. He covers 3 key considerations when trying to perform corrective exercises better.

Research Post of the Week
I have talked about this many times in blog posts and on my podcast. But here it is again. Muscle cramps are not do to water or electrolyte imbalances. Not that these can never cause issues, but there is really no evidence behind it. What really causes cramps in a neuromuscular problem. In this article from Dr. Len Kravitz he explains the proposed theories behind muscle cramping and potential causes. It is a little technical but well worth the read.
