But if your arms and legs start to shake with a magnitude of 7.0 on the Richter scale, it says hypertonia of muscles, and exercise have to stop. First, you run the risk of serious fall, rising from the simulator or trying to raise the bar. Secondly, severe fatigue will not allow you to calculate the load correctly, and you can get a sprain or muscle tear.
You experience a sudden sharp pain
