Introduction: Use of anabolic steroids and dehydration processes by bodybuilding athletes is a recurring practice. However, its potential damage to the renal epithelium needs greater explanations. Objectives: Evaluate markers of renal damage on the day immediately before the competition in professional athletes of the sport. Methods: Quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study. Twenty-two samples of bodybuilders were collected, and six subjects were regular practitioners of physical activities as control (n = 28). The urinary concentrations of urea, creatinine, albuminuria and proteinuria were analyzed. Results: There were no significant differences in urinary creatinine (p = 0.29) and urea (p = 0.36) values between groups. The parameters proteinuria, albuminuria, proteinuria / creatinine ratio and albuminuria / creatinine ratio were significantly higher in the group of bodybuilders than in the control group (p ≤ 0,001). It was identified values that classified microalbuminuria in 45.4% and proteinuria in 31.8% of bodybuilders. Conclusion: Bodybuilders are more susceptible to kidney damage due to the practice of prolonged periods of dehydration and the use of anabolic steroids. Although further studies are needed to explain the lifestyle implications of bodybuilders to the renal system, the present study may contribute to a better understanding of the condition of these subjects on the pre-competition day
