When training, especially when training legs, I notice that sometimes the lactic acid buildup in the muscle prevents me from executing more reps, rather than being unable to perform due to strength. For instance, when doing squats into the 12-15 rep range, I can't go on after 15, not because my strength won't allow me to, but because of the lactic acid buildup.
So my question is, what is the relationship, if any, between lactic acid buildup and muscle size or strength? If one's muscle is bigger, will it take longer for the lactic acid to completely fill the muscle?
Hypothetical: Two people are EQUALLY as strong (close to impossible, yes, but this is a hypothetical). Person A has bigger biceps than Person B. Will Person A be able to rep more with the same weight than Person B?
If so, although not directly, doesn't this prove a coorelation between muscle size and strength?
