Detailed explanation-1: -This burning sensation is associated with a buildup of acid in the muscles during intense exercise, and lactic acid has long been thought to be the culprit in that acid buildup, known as acidosis. Lactic acid is a byproduct of anaerobic metabolism, in which the body produces energy without using oxygen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lactic acid fermentation is the process by which our muscle cells deal with pyruvate during anaerobic respiration. This happens when we exercise too fast or hard because the oxygen supply can’t keep up with the need. That’s when our muscles switch from aerobic respiration to lactic acid fermentation.
Detailed explanation-3: -Did you ever run a race, lift heavy weights, or participate in some other intense activity and notice that your muscles start to feel a burning sensation? This may occur when your muscle cells use lactic acid fermentation to provide ATP for energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Some examples of high-intensity exercises that produce lactic acid include: Sprinting. Powerlifting. Agility training.
