Fitness Star Rakul Preet’s Scary Ordeal: A Warning About Gym Safety
Renowned actress and fitness enthusiast Rakul Preet Singh recently experienced a frightening health scare during a routine gym session. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of safety precautions and proper guidance, even for seasoned fitness experts.
On October 5th, while lifting weights, Rakul pushed herself to 80 kg. Despite feeling a sharp pain in her spine, she decided to continue her workout – a decision she later acknowledged as a serious mistake.
"I felt sharp pain in my spine, but I ignored it and continued with my routine. This turned out to be a major mistake," she recalled.
Later that day, the pain intensified, making even mundane tasks like bending or changing clothes impossible. Over the next four days, things took a worrying turn. Rakul experienced numbness from the waist down, followed by a dangerous drop in blood pressure. The actress even lost consciousness as a result of the health crisis.
Thankfully, Rakul’s story has a happy ending. She has since recovered and taken to social media to share her experience, cautioning her fans about the dangers of pushing boundaries without proper guidance. "Even fitness experts can face risks, especially when pushing their limits without professional supervision," she emphasized.
The incident is a powerful reminder that fitness should always be approached with care and responsibility. Whether you’re a seasoned gym-goer or just starting your fitness journey, prioritizing safety and seeking guidance from qualified professionals can help prevent similar situations.
Rakul, currently focusing on her recovery and unavailable for major film projects, hopes her experience will encourage both fitness enthusiasts and casual gym-goers to prioritize safety.
