"Each gym had a varied background – roughly 1-5 years of experience, 50-150 current members, with members doing 2-5 workouts each week. Only one gym had a single case of a client developing rhabdo. She has fully recovered and has since made certain that she enters the gym fully hydrated (aka not hungover), does not workout while dehydrated in 90+ degree heat, and does not try to maintain pace with someone far beyond her capability level. In other words, she does take most, if not all, of the responsibility. So, on the high estimate of 1 year operation x 50 members x 2 workouts per week x 52 weeks x 3 gyms, you get 1 case of rhabdo in 15,600 personal CrossFit encounters. This yields a .006% chance of getting rhabdo. A more realistic estimate of 3 years operation x 100 members x 3 workouts per week x 52 weeks x 3 gyms, gets you 1 case of rhabdo in 140,400 personal CrossFit encounters. This yields a .0007% chance of getting rhabdo." #CrossFit
