The September 2024 workout was \u201cunusually intense,\u201d and resulted in 24 of the 61 participants developing rhabdomyolysis, a serious and uncommon muscle injury, it stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nine of the students had to be hospitalized, according to the review, which was prepared by sports medicine consultant Rod Walters and attorney Randy Aliment. The review states that the Navy SEAL\u2019s lack of proper credentials and Tuft\u2019s lack of a plan for transportation of students to hospitals led to a dangerous scenario that could have been avoided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Navy SEAL Workout did not follow principles of acclimatization that are necessary to avoid injury during training,\u201d the report states. \u201cThe Navy SEAL Workout was not exercise-science based, physiologically sport-specific, or tailored to the individual sport of lacrosse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The review stated that the Navy SEAL who led the workout declined to be interviewed, though others in the investigation were cooperative. The review does not name the Navy SEAL, and the university declined to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Navy officials \u201care aware of the release of the report and that a member of the Naval Special Warfare community led a workout with Tufts University student athletes in September 2024,\u201d a Naval Special Warfare spokesperson told The Associated Press. The member was on a personal leave status at the time, according to the spokesperson, who declined to discuss the matter further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students who participated in the workout were not informed of the exercises or amounts of repetitions they would be required to perform, the review states. Some accounts of the workout said students \u201cperformed about 250 burpees and other exercises over the approximately 75-minute workout,\u201d and students who struggled with it were taken out to lower their heart rates with slower exercises, it states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While 40% of participants completed the workout without modification, students began complaining of soreness afterward, the review states. In the coming days, cases of exertional rhabdomyolysis \u2014 a potentially life-threatening condition in which muscles break down \u2014 were identified, according to the review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The review concludes that Tufts personnel need a better understanding of their roles and responsibilities in the future to prevent a similar scenario from happening again. That means \u201cvetting of team workout plans that deviate from those usually employed,\u201d it states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Tuft\u2019s men\u2019s lacrosse team is one of the most successful at the Division III level in the nation, and won the NCAA championship in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All students have recovered and returned to normal activity, Tufts president Sunil Kumar and athletics director John Morris said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, \u201cit is critical that we understand what led to this situation and to take steps to develop better and safer training practices for our student-athletes,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The September
