What is Lactate Production and Metabolism in Exercise about?

Lactate is produced in anaerobic conditions such as prolonged exercise due to the conversion of pyruvate to lactate catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase. This reaction regenerates NAD+ which is needed for continued glycolysis. The lactate produced in muscle is released into the blood and transported primarily to the liver where it is converted back to pyruvate and then glucose through gluconeogenesis.
