True. Proposes that DOMS is caused by ischemia during exercise, resulting in the build up of pain causing substance in muscles. The pain stimulates spasm that create more ischemia contributing to the pain occurring 12 to 48 hours later. Ischemia is localized anemia resulting from mechanical obstruction of the blood supply.

The spasm hypothesis suggests that muscular spasms contribute to delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) by reducing blood flow and causing an accumulation of metabolic byproducts in the muscles. This theory postulates that these spasms lead to pain and stiffness in the affected muscles following intense or unaccustomed exercise.
