Objective: Rhabdomyolysis is a dangerous medical condition with potentially serious or fatal
outcomes. It has been notably linked with high-intensity functional training (HIFT), a highly pop-
ular form of exercise.
Methods: This research aimed to analyze reported cases of exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER)
resulting from HIFT through a systematic review following the PRISMA guidelines.
Results: A total of 26 studies encompassing 63 cases were included. Commonly observed symp-
toms include muscle pain, swelling, exceptionally high creatine kinase levels, and dark urine,
with creatine kinase levels ranging from 7,816 to 232,579 U/L. The predominantly affected
muscles were in the upper body, especially the arms. Elevated creatine kinase levels, severe
muscle pain, and swelling emerged as the most reliable ER indicators. The patient age range was
predominantly 20 40 years. Notably, over one-third of the cases analyzed were of low quality.
Conclusion: Our ndings suggest HIFT may pose a higher risk for ER compared to most other com-
mon sporting activities.
