Lesson details
Lesson outcome
I can explain when lactic acid accumulates, how the body responds to different types of exercise and how to optimise recovery.
Show transcript
Lactic acid is produced when we exercise anaerobically.
Anaerobic exercise is when the intensity is too high to provide sufficient oxygen for aerobic respiration.
Anaerobic exercise at high intensity can only last a short duration.
During recovery respiratory rates remain elevated to remove lactic acid.
