    try some deep heat and eat bananas. (i'm not joking).

    I used to play 7's tournaments in rugby over 2 days, and we could play upto 10 games. The only thing that kept us going was deep heat and bananas. (bananas help - somehow - to reduce cramp)!!

    After a particularly hard session I will always go through a whole load of leg stretching exercises and consume a recovery drink, always done within half an hour of getting back home. That always sorts the aches out for me!
