The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
now what's the rationale for that well the rationale for that is that 2m is about the Tipping Point about which you can be in a steady state of producing lactate clearing lactate and once lactate starts to get into the three and four four Millo range you you wouldn't have indefinite access to that Energy System you're going to start accumulating so much hydrogen that at some point you're you're per your your your physics of performance are going to be compromised
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
This is usually referred to as the first lactate threshold. And again, for a metabolically healthy individual, um, and someone who's metabolically flexible, meaning they can go back and forth between utilizing glucose and fatty acids, this falls at about 2 mill of lactate. Um, that is what we refer to as zone 2.
There are people who walk around at rest with a lactate level above two.
