Kamila reports, in a video published on social media, that she felt a lot of pain after exercising. “During the class [de spinning] I was already feeling a lot of discomfort and was no longer able to stand. After three days I couldn’t walk anymore and I started urinating black liquid,” she says.
The influencer was diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis, a disease caused by the release of large amounts of toxins after severe muscle damage.
According to doctor Fabrício Buzatto, member of the Brazilian Army and Sports Medicine Society (SBMEE), this disorder is caused by exposure to intense activities without proper physical conditioning.
“It can happen to people who have never exercised, are not up to date with their exams, and undergo exhaustive exercises, with a very large overload on their muscles and always have professional guidance”, he informs the portal g1.
After every physical exercise, the muscle generates enzymes that need to be metabolized by the kidney and liver. In the case of rhabdomyolysis, according to doctor Karina Hatano, in an interview with g1the muscle damage is so great that it generates a quantity above that which the organs can receive.
“When we train very intensely, the muscle breaks down more and consequently the kidneys have to filter more. This creates a condition of acute insufficiency, toxins increase and the person may need dialysis or even die,” says Hetano.
To avoid rhabdomyolysis, according to doctor Karina, it is necessary to have adequate nutrition and hydration, in addition to practicing physical exercise regularly. “To avoid this disease and many others, the answer is to do physical activity. A prepared body won’t go through this. The secret is to have balance, starting with moderation, and with supervision from a professional and doctor,” she says.
