Start by adding potassium and glutamine to your supplement intake. Make sure you have water and multi vitamin/mineral intake on the level. A lot of time the lactic acid build up is caused by other factors, like a lack of proper supplementation.

here is a good article on potassium
potassium information

ok, i heard salt and milk can add to the burnin, is this true? i dont add any salt but i drink gallons of milk, love the stuff.

btw...try a sodium bicarbonate also know as baking soda. 1 tsp. mixed in your drink before your workout might help.

good luck - and stay away from the coke. Hitting the gym is a move in the right direction!
