What is lactate?

Lactic acid is produced in the muscles as a byproduct of burning carbohydrate for energy. Lactic acid seeps out of the muscle cells and into the bloodstream, hydrogen ions are released and the result is lactate, a salt. The amount of lactate increases as exercise intensity increases.
