No pain, no gain.

Got rhabdomyolysis from working out too hard, that saying is crap.

I'm sorry this happened to you! Yes, I think workouts need not be painful. It's best to ease into it and ramp up according to what's comfortable until you hit your goal, rather than trying to make drastic changes real fast. It would be good if more people were aware of this. I'm sorry you had to learn the hard way!
