Lactic Acid System

The lactic acid system is a form of respiration. The system is capable of releasing energy to resynthesise ATP without the involvement of oxygen and is called anaerobic glycolysis. This type of respiration kicks in after the ATP-PC system has expired, but before the body has a chance to move into aerobic respiration.
