2. Be cautious when it comes to high rep, low weight workouts. Rhabdomyolysis has been associated with extreme forms of this type of training. (The keyword here is extreme. High rep/low weight workouts are by enlarge excellent training options.)
3. Work with a professional if you’re new to exercise. He or she can steer you in the direction of health as opposed to harm when it comes to working out.
4. Don’t forget to drink water before, during and after your workout. Dehydration and rhabdomyolysis go hand in hand. In addition, beware of temperature extremes. This increases your risk of developing rhabdomyolysis. If it’s hot, don’t go for a run at noon. Time your workout early in the morning when it’s cooler.
If you do develop symptoms of rhabdomyolysis, see a doctor immediately. This condition can become life-threatening, so don’t delay when it comes to seeking medical treatment.
