Landau and colleagues (2012) report examples of extreme exertion leading to ERM when exercisers attempted to do hundreds of push-ups in an afternoon or suffered from “squat jump syndrome” after being told to squat as low as possible and then jump as explosively as possible repeatedly until exhaustion. The authors observe that although extreme exercise loading is most associated with ERM, it can be brought on by seemingly “safe” exercise too, because some people are just more physiologically vulnerable. Exercising in hot environments predisposes exercisers to ERM, so trainers should always monitor clients carefully when heat becomes a factor.

More doesn't necessarily mean better. Especially if one is new to exercise.
