Lactic acid is actually a fuel, not a caustic waste product. Muscles make it deliberately, producing it from glucose, and they burn it to obtain energy. The reason trained athletes can perform so hard and so long is because their intense training causes their muscles to adapt so they more readily and efficiently absorb lactic acid. http://www.sport-fitness-advisor.com/lactic-acid.html
Lactic Acid is never present in the human body. Lactate is.
