It is called
lactic acid buildup; when you haven’t exercised in a long time, and you start
to exercise, you might feel some pain. Let’s say you haven’t been doing any
running but you decide to jog around the block. Well, that pain you feel
actually is lactic acid buildup because what you’re doing is, after a certain
point, you no longer use oxygen that the metabolism can supply in the muscles.
You use what we call anaerobic metabolism, a lack of oxygen, and the breakdown
product, or build up of that, is lactic acid. When that gets in the body, it
can cause pain.
We always
appreciate your comments.
