    Stretch and Yoga works. Nothing like a downward dog to get those calfs and hammys stretched.

    Make sure you are VERY hydrated and eat Bananas for Potassium. And don't forget to stretch! Your body will adjust eventually :)

    They can fly?!? Ha sorry I had to!

    Maybe some aspercreme or a hot bath and kind of deep rub them while you're in there. Also, more light stretching.

    I echo everyone else here: Stretch, and then stretch some more. It really does help, but I know how hard it is to do. When you have a limited amount of time to workout, you want to use it to burn those calories.

    Warm up before your workouts then stretch after your workouts. Do some yoga once a week. You may also be over doin your leg workouts.
