Rhabdomyolysis - (taken from Wikipedia) is a condition in which damaged skeletal muscle tissue breaks down rapidly. Breakdown products of damaged muscle cells are released into the bloodstream; some of these, such as the protein myoglobin , are harmful to the kidneys and may lead to kidney failure The severity of the symptoms, which may include muscle pain, vomiting, confusion depends on the extent of muscle damage and whether kidney failure develops.Take the time to read these articles CrossFit induced Rhabdo by Greg Glassman and Rhabdomyolysis Revisited by Dr Will Wright.
