ABSTRACT

Intense exercise increases lactate levels. Muscle acidosis is mainly produced by anaerobic glycolysis and increasing adenosine triphosphate hydrolysis. It is theoretically considered the main environmental factor for muscle fatigue in high‑intensity training. Muscle acidosis leads to physiological disorders in reducing creatine phosphate and inhibiting essential enzymes such as phosphofructokinase in glycolysis. It also causes a decrease in the sensitivity of myofibrils to calcium ions and dysfunction of the muscle system. These physiological disorders can devastate speed and strength. The accumulation of H + ions is essential to fatigue.
