Here is my situation,
Endurance wise, I'm currently satisfied with at the moment and know how to increase it. What I need help on is increasing my tolerance to the Latic Acid burn. I know having a high tolerance has to do with gene's but also training for it also helps. What foods, type of training, what to comsume, etc... can I do to make it burn less?
I'm not sure if this is related to Latic Acid, over training, not enough resting, proper nutrition, circulation, stretching or whatever...
But the first 15-30 minutes into my rides, my legs are hurting bad...mostly the outer and upper thigh area. Feels like Latic Acid burn but I don't think it's that because once it goes away, I'm fine and hauling ass like usual with little discomfort. One of my rides is a 6 mile loop (Whiting Ranch for the SoCa locals), I do it at least 2 times everytime I go out and up to 4 if I feel up to it. I struggle for the first half of first loop because of my legs but after that, I can ride the entire course at least one more additional loop without much discomfort. Can anyone explain what I can do to help this this?
Thanks!!!
