Subject: RE: Swimming foot crampI got them early on in training, my coach told me it was due to a lack of ankle flexibilty. They did go away as I swam more, thank God because they are PAINFUL!!!!
I guess stretching and increasing flexibility does increase performance, because I'm definitely faster without foot cramps than with them. Shhh, don't tell Jorge because we'll get into that debate again and he'll ask for scientific evidence of my foot cramps  .
It could also be hydration or vitamin deficiency, so try to hydrate and eat some bananas.
