They say "But they do write that they suspect that lactic acid, normally produced by the muscles during intensive exercise.."

Not true. It doesn't have to be intensive. Just holding your arm up for a few seconds will produce LA and you feel it.

I think further studies said the effect for intensive exercise only lasted for about 10 weeks BUT the effect for sub-lactate threshold work i.e. aerobic continued beyond that. Seems there's good stress and bad stress. If you can 'feel the burn' or get out of breath you've overdone it.
