Sir i think these should is are muscle twitching or fasciculation . You need to confirm it then you please get your proper treadmill test in cardiac lab. Some routine blood investigations to see electrolytes and ECG 12 lead.
i am sure if you continue your work out it will gradually went off.
Best regards
