Drink more water with some salty snacks. My feet and legs cramp up when I'm dehydrated.
You prefer lactate build up?
Okay then, do we all agree surpassing lactate clearance threshold and H+ ion accumulation exist In an anaerobic environment?You've stumbled onto one of @martyg 's pet peeves.
I'll sum up: lactate has nothing to do with muscle soreness and actually helps move energy about during aerobically challenging work; this has been known for going on 40 years, yet people still persist in calling it that.
Not one of my triggers, fortunately. I reserve that level of committed disgust for people who draw teardrop-shaped raindrops ( we've known that they actually look like hamburgers longer than we've known about continental drift) and for people who call my Bonts 'Rollerblades'.
this weekend while skiing very steep bumps my feet were getting extremely fatigued to the point of what I would compare to lactic acid buildup and burn. really strange.
never happens when skiing black type steep runs, first time this has ever happened to me.
anyone ever heard of this or had this happen to them? I am suggesting something must be off in my technique. Perhaps the steepness and size of the bumps freaked me out enough where I tightened up the muscles in my feet too much? Edging too hard to keep my speed down, I dunno.
No leg fatigue, just my feet.
Just looking for things to watch technique wise, and think about as I head out again next week
thanks!
