Evaluation and Management of Exertional Rhabdomyolysis Following a Spin Class

Haley A. Turner, Lily C. Goodman, Christian J. Chang, Guillermo Moris, and Jose M. Moris

Exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER) is a condition that arises when intense exercise, particularly that involving large muscle groups, leads to the breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue and the subsequent release of myoglobin into the bloodstream. 1 Myoglobin is a protein that is released when muscle
