Raises awareness for exertional rhabdomyolysis after intense training; hypothesis-generating for risk stratification in healthy adults.

High-intensity resistance training can induce severe rhabdomyolysis with markedly elevated muscle enzymes, which can be managed effectively with intravenous saline to prevent acute renal failure.
Honda et al. (2017) conducted a case report in Rhabdomyolysis (n=1). High intensity resistance training was evaluated on Serum creatine kinase (CK) and urine myoglobin levels. A 37-year-old man developed exertional rhabdomyolysis with markedly elevated serum creatine kinase (95,100 U/L) and urine myoglobin (160,000 ng/mL) after high-intensity resistance training.
