Hey! I'm not doing any weight training at the moment, but I'm looking to start.
There's one thing that has me a little hesitant, and that is lactic acid.
Whenever I've done weight training the past, I've had issues with a few select exercises.
I can do multiple sets on the leg press, multiple sets of leg curls, multiple sets of certain arm exercises. But with about 50% of the arm exercises that I do, lactic acid begins effecting my muscles so quickly that after I finish the first set I literally cannot lift the weight anymore (even if I wait for quite a while).
I guess my question is, is that abnormal, or is it simply because I'm out of shape?
The very first time I started going to the gym (several years ago), I went regularly for about 2 months. I achieved significant weight loss, but to some degree the lactic acid issue remained a problem. Especially with shoulder exercises.
Thanks.
