Document Summary

Lactate is formed and accumulates when the rate of glycolytic production of pyruvate and nadh exceeds the rate at which these products are shuttled into the mitochondria. An accumulation of h+ in the blood will increase the respiratory exchange ratio (rer) measurement. A respiratory exchange ratio value of 1. 0 would indicate that for each gram of carbohydrate used to make atp, one gram of protein was also being used. Blood glucose remains a source of fuel during exercise even after muscle glycogen has been depleted. Fat contains more energy per gram than carbohydrates; therefore, atp can be produced more rapidly from fats than from carbohydrates. Trained individuals usually produce less lactate than untrained individuals when making the transition from rest into a steady state of exercise. True false: while lactic acid accumulation may contribute to muscle fatigue during exercise, it does not cause the muscle soreness that may occur 24-48 hours after exercising.
