Foot cramps when exercising?

Hey peeps Random question, but does anyone get foot cramps when exercising? I'm thinking it's the cold weather as only been happening during the winter, I do my class fine but my feet cramp when I stand still so I have to jump about more lol! It's not potassium, I eat a banana a day, probably should drink more water and less wine but I don't think I'm dehydrated, wishing for the summer but does anyone else get this whilst exercising? Ta muchly peeps 😁

@chezy17 , it could be a case of stressing the foot muscles before they're warmed up. You need to do some stretches before you put muscles under pressure. Warm up - exercise - warm down. 😉

@chezy17 yes! I do. It's my left leg where I actually get my main symptoms and flare ups and I notice sometimes it's can cramp during certain exercises esp on the rower as my foot is strapped in. It's also the same for me I have stronger symptoms when standing still. I just have accepted its part of the MS, no idea if there any other reasons tbh 😂🙈
