That can happen to anyone. The same leg shaking will occur if you are squatting long enough.

There are some Important nerves ( Radial and Ulnar nerves) that twist a bit at the Elbow and when they are compressed or pinched in certain positions, cause the sensations described. The Forearm can even go numb or 'fall asleep' . The best thing is to avoid those positions or change them as soon as one noticed the Tingling.
