What Causes Severe Muscle Cramps On Different Parts Of Body?

I am 44 y/o AA F having sxs of muscle cramping or constricting in different areas of my body. I was pulling up my pants and received muscle cramp. I was ticking my shirt in and got a muscle spasam in my right upper arm. What is happening? Am I experiencing some deficiency d/t aging? I do have high blood pressure and recently stopped smoking 3 months ago.
