Exercise is amazing Master Therion, what do you mean? What gives if lactate and some muscle soreness results, it's good for muscle growth! Just like the protein and calcium in milk, except don't drink it if it has the smell of lactic acid! If you do, your intestines and anal sphincter may suffer from "exercising" constantly for days on end... #LacticAcidMuscleSorenessInTheGutIsReal I'm sorry if that one was really bad, food poisoning IS NOT funny. I've had it.

well, from what i research and still research lactic acid divides in blood in lactate and H+ ,because lactic acid is unstable and it disipates rapidly in the blood. So while in muscle ,H+ make muscle more acidic and lactate is a direct measure of of H+ ions in the blood and the fact that muscle is acidic iritates nevres and transmit the sensation of pain.Practicly kinda this is the lore.

Nicely done, my son is in pre-med bio now. I am a doc, can't wait to explore this with him

What a tease, I wanted to learn more!

I'm an runner and a LOT of the older publications push the lactic acid theory. Only recent publications stop talking about lactic acid and now just refer to 'acidosis' . Big thanks for publishing this.

Hank Green, I loved your style. Great work.

Great video!

I was watching this video for a highschool biology presentation, and this is really helpful.

Thanks for showing this, my nutritionist also tells to clear up lactic acid from the body by doing cardio

I read somewhere years ago, that muscle soreness was actually caused by calcium. When calcium comes in contact with an open wound (i.e. micro muscle tear) from the exercised muscle, it causes an inflammatory response, which also puts pressure on the surrounding nerves of the muscle trying to protect it.

Always good to learn something new.

That last bit was funny! I was fooled by the life science textbook at school, so thank you for this information.

And videos like these are the reason my bio teacher kicks me out of class. I still love you Hank

Well! I can forget about that chunk of information I learnt from my Personal Trainer course 😂 Thank you Hank and everyone from Sci Show!

Thank you for the PSA about not being condescending. It happens more often than I'd like to admit, I'm guilty of it many times and it's a very good thing to keep in mind as people typically don't like to be told they are wrong.

My exercise physiology professor hated this misconception. And ranted for a lecture on why lactate gets a bad name

This reminds me of another episode I'd love to see. Some years ago I saw something that stated that the accepted doctrine of fluoride strengthening you teeth was based on a single, faulty study. Personally, I don't see how something that leaches calcium from bodes would protect your tooth enamel. PLEASE do something on this.

great video learned a lot

This channel is the best

That's why I don't miss scishow or CC videos. I learned the lactic acid bit in high school maybe even in college.

I need that last bit in a gif. That was great. :D

Definitely agree with the small muscle cuts causing pain... Know this very well after a marathon

THANK YOU HANK. Also, lactate is actually an important fuel source, as it is extremely similar to It's precursor, pyruvate.

Hank looked like he was having so much fun in this video, it was nice

I learned something! Love to learn things.

Love that disclaimer at the end haha

Great advice :)

pretty amazing that we dont even know what really causes muscle fatigue! im pre-med so from what ive learned, i gathered it was caused by torn up myosin fibers that were in the process of rebuilding to support stronger/longer muscle contractions. Sort of comparable to how when an individual experiences a bone fracture/break, the bone rebuilds itself even stronger than it was previously!

@bramvanduijn8086

5 жыл бұрын

I tihnk lack of ATP is still the problem. A braking effect on generation of new ATP due to localised saturation with unwanted waste molecules is still the most likely cause. The only difference is that lactate is not the braking molecule. The hunt is on to find the culprit.

Thank you!

Hank, you're awesome!

Some time ago i saw a program where they put an ultra-marathoner on a treadmill. This person does dawn to dusk runs for FUN! While on the treadmill they measured his lactate (acid?), and as he ran longer and longer the measurement went down!

Well. Heck and further dang. This does change a few of the things I say to people I train.

That last part just got me laughing so hard XD it's like you know me

Thank you for commenting on the vague and inadequate knowledge of DOMS and how it doesn't relate to lactate.

i love that TSA at the end, "DON'T BE CONDESCENDING!"

Do you guys have a correlation != Causation video on the moon and tidal waves etc...?

I think a video on what we really DO know about how the body works, would be really useful. And it would be short. It would go something like “people who eat less seem to weigh less, and people who weigh less, seem to live longer. The rest is commentary. Also we have no real idea.”

Actually this is what my science teacher taught me, and he learnt it as a competitive short track speed skater back in the 90s.

Cheers

In school I was taught that lactic acid causes pain in the muscles if you suddenly stop exercising, hence the need for a cool down. I'm assuming a cool down is still needed, but can someone tell me why if it isn't to release the lactate back into the blood stream slowly?

@mrman4279

5 жыл бұрын

Tamara Epps I think cool downs help flush the acid ( the protons) out of the muscles to kind of restore the ph and help u recover faster, and they keep ur muscles from tightening up so much so u stay loose

@Master_Therion

5 жыл бұрын

tl;dr to keep blood moving to make tired muscles happy. I'm not sure if this is another "exercise myth" but I believe cooling down allows the blood to keep moving through the body while the heart is returning to normal. Arteries are high pressure, the heart is what moves blood through them. But veins are low pressure. Veins (at least partially) rely on the movement of skeletal muscles and one-way valves to move blood. So if you suddenly stop exercising blood can pool in the muscles (especially the legs) which is bad because the muscles are starved for fresh oxygenated blood.

@anemac9

5 жыл бұрын

Yeah, and not only cooldown helps with the pain, once you’re feeling pain days after, you can exercise your normal routine but now with proper cooldown at last and alleviate the pain. It doesn’t make sense to me if damaged tissue were responsible for the pain. Unless, oc, if you have a other kind of lesion. I heard once that unused crystals left behind by the biochemical processes were responsible for the pain. So by exercising again to some point your body consumes the crystals.

@DEMONCOALITION

I work out a lot 6 times a week how i view a cool down is more of a aerobic exercise like running or doing circuit exercise were u do light weight high reps rapid pace for 10 minutes or more and working different muscles. That's what i use that for. going slower when I'm done with main work out like for my jog or circuit work out i do after im done, it helps my body get back to normal from hi blood pressure lowers my breathing tells my, Muscles your getting ready for normal day to day activity veins decrease in size and i feel calmer, lactic acid i like becuase ik im using my stored energy food from stomach and fat cells, but feeling muscle soreness takes 2 to 3 days to feel the effect for me. But if you r a beginner feeling muscle soreness ull feel more often like 12 hours after or 24 hour's after you work out if you work out for so many days for long period of times the rate of muscle soreness will go down or to not at all. if u don't feel anything and had a good work out which i mean by good workout is working till muscle failure u have built up a tolerance but if no muscle pain after work out means u didnt properly work then out, cool downs from what i experience don't help muscle fatigue but helps body to get back into natural rhythm

@elvinl.

The cool down is needed because the body doesn't handle sudden big changes very well. Have you ever tried running very fast for some time and then suddenly stopping? you most likely will feel sick. Same reason of why there is a warming up period.

Actually, we mostly understand the pain part of it. When you do a workout (specifically in strength training) your muscles tear microscopically. I’m sure you’re probably familiar with this if you’re doing strength training. Anyways, this results in your immune system going in and cleaning things up as well as repairing your muscles. This is thought to increase the sensation of pain because of the mild inflammation going on. While there are other theories, this is the most convincing in my opinion because we know that inflammation already increases the sensation of pain. Remember though, this type of inflammation isn’t going to hurt you and may end up benefiting you indirectly.
