Aerobic training will not increase lactic acid tolerance, however, it will increase the lactate threshold. [2] Anaerobic training will increase tolerance of the effects of lactic acid over time, allowing the muscles’ ability to work in the presence of increased lactic acid.
It was once believed that lactic acid build-up was the cause of muscle fatigue. [8] The assumption was lactic acid had a "pickling" effect on muscles, inhibiting their ability to contract. Though the impact of lactic acid on performance is now uncertain, it may assist or hinder muscle fatigue.
Undissociated lactic acid can cross the rumen wall to the blood, [29] where it dissociates, lowering blood pH. Both L and D isomers of lactic acid are produced in the rumen; [24] these isomers are metabolized by different metabolic pathways, and activity of the principal enzyme involved in metabolism of the D isomer declines greatly with lower ...
Lactic acid tends to accumulate in the muscles, which causes pain in the muscle and joint as well as fatigue. [13] It also creates a gradient which induces water to flow out of cells and increases blood pressure. [14] Research suggests that lactic acid may also play a role in lowering levels of potassium in the blood. [15]

Isaac Newton’s third law of motion goes something like: “what goes up must come down.” Corrective exercise specialist and trainer Tatiana Lampa, NASM, says that feeling the slightest bit ...

The impact of lactic acid on performance is now uncertain, it may assist or hinder muscle fatigue. [citation needed]
Although many people engage in stretching before or after exercise, the medical evidence has shown this has no meaningful benefit in preventing specifically muscle soreness. It may reduce the lactic acid build up in the muscles, making the next workout more bearable. [22]
