Abstract
TORRES-LEON, J.M.; COCA-BENITO, D.; DOMINGUEZ-ALEGRIA, A.R. and CHAMIZO-ALARCON, M.. Rhabdomyolysis after spinning: a peculiar association. Rev Andal Med Deporte [online]. 2016, vol.9, n.2, pp.91-94. ISSN 2172-5063. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ramd.2015.09.002.
Exertional rhabdomyolysis is a distinct entity with special characteristics. We present a case report, and literature review, of rhabdomyolysis in a young healthy male adult after practicing a single spinning session. The objective is to explain the peculiarities of the association spinning and exertional rhabdomyolysis and determine the risk of this disease, even in healthy people, concerning this sport. Muscular contraction during this exercise and the diminished perception of effort, due to being a group activity encouraged by a monitor, may contribute to its association.
Keywords : Spinning; Rhabdomyolysis; Exertional rhabdomyolysis.
