I have recently started in the adult baseball league in my area. It is lots of fun, but my quads cease up on me in the first plays of the game, even after warmup. I then can't run the rest of the game which makes me a pretty poor baseball player!

I am trying my best to stay warm. I have the heavier weight smartwool long underwear, wool socks plus my baseball uniform socks, I wear tearaway sweats, a leather coat, leather gloves (the guys make fun of me for playing baseball with a glove on my throwing hand, but anything to keep warm) and a stocking cap over my baseball hat.

My feet get cold, which is a concern for the frostbite, but I don't think I can fit any more foot warming aids in my cleats. I think more importantly not only performance-wise but to prevent injury, I need to keep my quads from cramping up. Any ideas? Also, after a game I used to always ice my injuries or sore muscles, but have now been told "no icing" what are the best ways to aid in muscle recovery without ice?

Thanks for your help! ]]> http://www.raynauds.org/support/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=16&threadid=2401 2010-03-27T08:43:20 -05.00 SunshineNEldon 3 http://www.raynauds.org/support/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=16&threadid=2385 2010-03-09T19:48:24 -05.00 katiewin 2 http://www.raynauds.org/support/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=16&threadid=2351 2010-02-10T09:02:35 -05.00 Mako 2
Does anyone know if Raynauds would cause something this? The blood is most likely due to foot-strike issues and I was wondering if possibly Raynaud's had weakened my blood vessels (or something like that.) Thoughts? ]]> http://www.raynauds.org/support/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=16&threadid=2335 2010-01-28T11:11:22 -05.00 wjhauber 1

I personally find that if my skin gets chilled to the point where I am shivering, that I will get an attack. One of the tips talks about how to dress to avoid excessive sweat. I plan to try that tip.

However, the temperatures in Iowa are going to be very chilly this week. I will be running indoors until the temperatures hit about 30 :-) ]]> http://www.raynauds.org/support/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=16&threadid=2326 2010-01-19T02:16:38 -05.00 paige 3 http://www.raynauds.org/support/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=16&threadid=2307 2010-01-06T09:43:53 -05.00 dncr4180 3
There is a fan that blows on my face and I had to turn in off b/c of my hands.

Anyone else have this problem? Are there some type of running gloves out there that I can get to help with the cold hands?

Question 1: I plan to try all of my stay warm clothes and jog until I have my first attack. I hope that I can keep going until spring comes :-) Does anyone have good outdoor stay warm tips?

Question 2: Perhaps I should consider using an indoor pool but pools worry me greatly. If you exercise in a pool that is used for lap swimmers, the temperatures will be cool. What is the best pool temperature for a frostie? Is the right question to ask?

Question 3: Also, one of the regular posters has a husband who is on a ski patrol and is a frostie. He must have some awesome tips to share! How does a ski patrol member cope? ]]> http://www.raynauds.org/support/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=16&threadid=2267 2009-11-24T10:43:34 -05.00 nbutterly01 4
Trying to figure out just how common this is. Can you respond if you experience symptoms while exercising. Can you be specific? IE does an attack happen every time you exercise? Does it happen after you finish? Or does it happen while you are exercising? can you pin point a heart rate that it occurs with?

Thanks for any and all information. ]]>
