I don ' t know why , but if you keep doing it , they ' ll stop cramping . If it does cramp , just flex until it goes away and point again . I got yelled at by trainers to point my toes for months and now my toes never cramp <| sep |> I believe this guy is memeing doom , satan , 666 <| sep |> In my game I ' ve found the hour long short rest to be tough to do narratively it ' s a lot of time to just stop what you ' re doing during an adventure , especially if you have a time limit , even a loose one . So I houseruled that a short rest can be as little as 10 minutes short enough to potentially do in the middle of a dungeon , but long enough that you ' re still taking a risk of being interrupted . It seems to have improved things !
