Hi

Any idea why my foot would cramp up when I squat. It doesn't happen all the time, but I've tried with different shoes and even barefoot, it seems to be random. When pushing back up, my right foot seems to cramp up starting on top top of my outter foot heading towards my toes.

I'm having a helluva time mastering this excercise, two weeks ago, I pulled something in my right thigh, nothing serious, now my foot is acting up...

I have issues with my sciatic nerve on my left side, and as I'm writing this I'm wondering if maybe I'm compensating too much with my right side of my body....any ideas.

Thanks again everyone for the great input on the forum.
