Working out while asleep

Is this possible? Can you get a good work out while asleep? Could a dream cause you to get a workout?

The reason I'm asking is I woke up this morning and my calves hurt - as if I had worked out the day before. Did I benefit from a dream workout?

You could be right - I wouldn't put it past the old dog.

@carrie94086,
I was wondering that - I figured I might have been "running" or "jumping" or something. Sometimes I have very adventerous dreams - where I am running/jumping and fighting against the bad guys.

@Linkat,
You probally didn't drink enough water that day, or previous days, and had a muscle spasm in your sleep.

@alex240101,
That's what I was thinking.

Eat a banana.

@chai2,
If I have a muscle spasm, I don't sleep - that's some impressive sleep.

I know when I had nightmares and would cry in my dream - I would have a sore throat the next morning...prolly just flexing those muscles while you are dreaming.

@chai2,
I hate bananas!

Could be - I thought maybe I was saving the world. I've always wanted to be a superhero. I tell my kids that I don't go to work, I am actually a superhero - but alas they don't believe me.
