  • Is Carmichael the same guy who was implicated in the doping of the US junior team?

  • Sorry, ran out of room - the acidosis comes from. Just to fill you in lactate actually accepts the H+ which in turn makes the body less acidotic. When you run analysis on "lactic acid" what you are actually measuring is lactate, what accompanies an increase in lactate is and increase in H+, which is assumed to be "lactic acid". Just because one goes up does not mean it is caused by the other. Yes, the body does increase acidosis, is it from "lactic acid", NO.

  • @theyouuser- You are correct........ or at least you were correct 10yrs ago. Do to advancements in science and research we now know that that proposed mechanism is inaccurate. As stated pyuravte can be converted to lactate not lactic acid and transported to different cells and tissues in the body by way of MCT I & II as a source of fuel. Dr. Robergs out of UNM published a great peer-reviewed article on metabolic acidosis, the history of "lactic acid", where the term came from described where th

  • @clownsarecool1- sorry to tell you but your explaination about "lactic acid" is wrong. Look up Dr. George Brooks at UC Berkley, the foremost expert in lactate NOT "lactic acid" production. He has done all most all the research on lactate... Just to fill every1 in, the human body DOES NOT produce LACTIC ACID. Pyruvate is actually converted to Lactate by LDH. Once converted to lactate can be transported to different cells or even organs to be used as feul source.

  • lactate does not cause your muscle to "burn".... no pain receptors in the muscle equals no "buring sensation"... sorry

  • lactic acid is a by product of all movement but is not accumulated below the AT, once above the LT, LA accumulates and hinders the sliding filament mechanism pain receptors pretty much everywhere in the bodyour body's warning sign muscle has its fair share and the burning not actually burning but it feels like it and itsthe PH levels in the blood, receptors in the vessels within the muscle called capillaries recognise this and signal sent which is interpreted by the brain as a burning sensation

  • Lactate?

  • Lactate what your body makes when its working to fast to consume oxygen. It's also what makes your muscles burn. the threshold is normal compared to a heart bpm or wattage output.

  • No EPO... like his 6 samples of 1999 TDF !

  • Speak English VaSpark. Or stop chewing on your slim jim's when you're trying to type.

  • Is that Carmichael is the blue shirt? Chris Carmichael long time trainer..

  • Dont call him a DOPER if you cant back it up!

  • No actually it is the basement of the bike store Mellow Johnys in Austin, Texas.

  • You should have bought Walsh's book too

  • please post indepth details on what the test is? why they do it during exercise, what it means?

  • lactic acid production in your muscles increases with stress. when your muscles are under a lot of stress, lactic acid is produced faster than it can be removed from the muscles and the bloodstream. search krebs cycle and cori cycle for more info. here, they are measuring his bodys ability to remove lactic acid from his bloodstream, and thus, his muscles, after is it used. he naturally has a very high ability to remove lactic acid from his muscles, which increases endurance.

  • sorry, ran out of space haha. when exercising, lactic acid levels in the blood remain steady as long as youre getting enough oxygen and can clear it from your body. everything is in balance. however, when the intensity increases, at some point, you hit a "wall" and enter anaerobic respiration. you cant supply enough oxygen to your muscles, lactic acid levels increase sharply and you run out of energy. this is a big reason why he's such a good time-trialist AND climber, but it doesnt help sprint

  • torres from liverpool is using it too man!! but torres is much tinner, if you want to see it, see the friendly between singapore and liverpool, after the game, he took out his shirt, and shake hands with the singapore national team, nike product.

  • there he is. TDL champion.

  • What is the purpose of that belt around his chest?

  • thats a heart rate counter

  • Interesting. It should look like a watch and be on his wrist. :)

  • the one i have also goes around the chest.

  • it is a heart rate monitor

  • heart rate moniter

  • OK, thank you all. I got it. :)

  • heart rate moniter

  • Heart rate monitor

  • Yes, he looks like he did when he was in the tour de pont (I wish I could say that I looked the same as I did 16 years ago) with more upper body muscle. Not a tour frame for sure. It's Levi's turn anyway, Lance is just there for cancer awareness.

  • Lance has some upper boddy mass to shred of:D
