Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
During the exercise, the muscle fluttering is seen due to benign causes like fluid and electrolyte imbalance. Other possible cause could be vitamin B complex deficiency. You need to take plenty of electrolyte rich energy drinks during exercise to avoid it.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
