    Equally important as mitochondrial efficiency is also lactic acid cycle efficiency/tolerance. Train how you fight they always say.

    I'm so confused
    I mean how the muscle cell adapt to lactic acid
    I know the long run (the liver converts it etc..) I'm talkin about the muscle
    Cell it self how does it adapt to remove lactic acid is it only by throwing it to the blood I don't think so I think that the muscle uses that lactic acid or something that's why people who trains get adapted to it and it doesn't accumulate easily isn't it?????
    So confusing I've been searching on this for long time

    I am going to be honest with you, it is hard to understand what you are saying because of how you type it. I would rather not dive into the entire lactic acid cycle so if you desire further understanding of it then just do a simple google search of the Cori Cycle, which is another name for it.

    From what I understood from this post you are on the right track. Lactate is produced through glycolysis which then is used to produce energy before heading back through the liver and converted to glucose and back to lactate.

    This process can become much more efficient if you subject your body to it enough is what I was trying to say. If you train for endurance, you will gain more endurance.

    If there are still questions then let us know.

    I think I went over the cori cycle a lot but I think it only says how lactic acid goes through the bloodstream and then to the liver
    But doesn't talk about how the MUSCLE cell uses it
    I'll check it again maybe I'm mistaken
    I also have another question I heard the hydrogen is what causes muscles to burn and that pyruvate binds to H+ ion to instead of giving energy to form lactate and that there is not lactic acid
