Fiber snaps.

Hey, everyone.

I've been going to the gym regularly (4-7 days a week, depending on my schedule) for the past two months. Trying to get this baby weight off. I started lifting free weights when I felt like I was in good enough shape to move away from the circuit. I've noticed the occasional sensation reoccurring. It will feel like a tiny pop in one of my muscles. It's not painful, barely noticeable, and it doesn't effect my ability to lift. I make sure I stretch well, and keep to weights that I know are within my range. I have a trainer working with me on form, so I don't believe that's the issue. The following day, I'm slightly sore but not utterly destroyed. The location of the pop isn't discernibly different than any other portion of my body. Is this a micro-tear, or something bigger?

I've experienced this even in the fittest times of my life, and it won't always happen at the gym, either. Sometimes I'll just stretch and something will pop, as well. I've been to urgent care after one incident with this, because of the location in my abdominal wall. He gave me muscle relaxers and told me to take it easy for a few days. I'm just curious about what this is and if it's troublesome. He didn't seem concerned.

My diet might need tweaking.

I went into Ketosis a few days ago and have been in need of electrolytes, which I remedied last night. Other than that, I'm stumped.
