The interventions in this trial can be done at home. Openly discussing the intervention groups with all participants prior to randomization thus poses a high risk of tainting the study because subjects in the one group may start doing the other groups exercises after having heard about it during the consent process as a way to potentially reduce the symptoms and severity of painful muscle cramps. Therefore, this study will conceal information regarding the nature of the interventions. Only participants randomized to the true intervention group will be told during the study period what the behavioral intervention is. Additionally, the title of this trial upon registration is listed slightly differently than it is listed with the Institutional Review Board (IRB), to provide scientific integrity with the masking requirements. When the trial is completed, the title will be amended to match the IRB approved title. At the conclusion of the study, at the time of the final follow-up assessments, all participants will be debriefed on the use of the concealment of the study object in this study.
