muscle keeps twitching

i went to the gym today at 11:30 am and had a good chest days. about a hour after working out, my right chest muscle started twitching and it has been twitching off and on, it is 7:43 pm now and still going. the twitch is not painful but starting to get annoying. did i just over do it, cause a injury, something or nothing to worry about.
 
update: i went to bed around 10:45 and the twitching was still going, but i have woken up and the twitching has stopper. it last a good 9 hours. anyone have an idea
 
Twitching (called "Fasciculations") is normally benign and not a cause for concern. No one actually knows why it happens, although it seems to be related to stress hormones or electrolyte disturbances (such as potassium, magnesium or calcium), both of which occur from strenuous exercise.

On a related note, why do you have a 'chest day' as part of your workout design?

Do you have legs on your body?
 
i think so, but i did fall once and grab my shoulder and say "ow my kidney" so i have been wrong before. i get enough leg exercise from all the gymnastics. I only use the floor so all i do is jump, jump, hop, and some dances (though not so well at the dancing).
