A member asked:
My mom has told me not to shower with cold water after the gym because the temperature change causes muscle spams. is she right?

Not in this case: Cool shower water temperature has nothing to do with muscle cramps. Frigid water (falling into a frozen lake) can cause muscle rigidity, but your shower could never get that cold!
