That sounds like an "old wives tale". It probably only works if you are an

Tim, I'm not a slave to fashion so I buy long & short sleeve cotton
shirts at a thrift shop for $2, rip off the pockets, wear them only for
turning (yeah, sure) and wash them separately.
I wonder if rubbing the sleeves with soap would prevent muscle cramps as
is claimed for a bar of soap between the sheets.
