Someone from the company over got rhabdo about 3 months ago. He started feeling ill and went to Clark clinic the day after a relatively mild workout(50 power snatches @135) and was found to have rhabdo. In his case however this was the second workout attempted of the day. He was dehydrated and drank copious amounts of coffee the morning off and polished off the workout session with a 6 pack of beer. He's my buddy so I won't say anything to major, but yea pretty ingenious right?

My point is crossfit doesn't have anything to do with it, in fact I would argue the opposite as most of their workouts are less than the 30 minute mark, albeit at a very high intensity. It was much more common when I was running track in that circle than what i've seen in crossfit/military athelete.
