Latic Acid & Running

[LoveGuinness]

as a researcher who is currently in the process of having my work published, i am on the side which uses credible sources to reference an argument, theory, hypothesis, or opinion.

sparknotes isn't a credible source.

wikipedia often cites primary sources and therefore are 100% more credible than sparknotes. here is why: if i search wikipedia for X and then read the information they have listed on X, i can often find their citations. if i read those articles cited i can see where the summaries and theories located on their site came from.

well back ON topic i think my DOMS is finally vanishing :)

[Michelley]

doms i might have to agree is probably not caused by lactic acid but who really knows

i think the theory nowadays is that its like caused by muscle fiber tearing or somethignm, which makes sense

but i dont really know much bout that topic..



and also,
as much as wikipedia CAN be reliable.. u have to make sure you only believe the stuff they say with citations, cuz even the website itself warns you

right...that is what i already said, which is why i go and read the primary texts to ensure its reliablity.

Is this why I fatigue quickly, and am a far better sprinter than distance runner (since I'm diabetic)?
