Default Muscle twitching after work out...
Recently my pecs have been twitching following a work out. Theyll twitch for around 5 seconds intermittently for around 10 minutes after im done. Never had this before but im just wondering if anybody knows whether its a sign of anything bad? Being overworked or maybe im lacking in energy or something in my diet?

Muscle twitches after exercise is common.

After the muscles have had an intense workout there are changes that take place as the muscle responds to the stress of exercised lactic acid build up in the fatigued muscle.

Or maybe you have natural rhythm.

My legs do that after a fast paced walk, I think it's just the arteries being opened and blood flowing. I wouldn't worry.

Ah cool, thought it wouldnt be anything big just had me wondering thats all as I haven't noticed it before and ive been doing weights for quite a while now. Just started up after I began working my pecs harder, makes sense really. Thanks!

we learned this in class theres few reasons for twitching

1.) you worked harder this time than any previous workouts
2.) didn't get enough water
3.) didn't stretch (never stretched when i used to hit the gym lol)

its nothing to worry about
