Our breathing rate increases and you start to breathe heavily, this happens because
More blood gets circulated around the body
We have started to perform a physical activity
To break down Lactic Acid and replenish energy supplies.
Our muscles need more oxygen so you breathe deeper and quicker so a supply of oxygen can get to the muscles.
The burning sensation you feel during and shortly after exercise is largely due to
Proteins
Lactic Acid
Hormones
Acids
