Does intensely exercising right after a long state of relaxing in a non-fit person lead to negative health affects? If so, why?
In: Biology
Short term, yep, it can: [Rhabdomyolysis](https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/rhabdomyolysis-symptoms-causes-treatments#1). That’s typically people that used to be fitter, and push *way* too hard in a single workout to try to make up for lost time. It’s tough for a true novice to push themselves that hard.
Long term: not really, unless you injure yourself obviously.
