They both are reached are approx the same time, it is thought to be that the large change (drop) in blood pH when the lactate threshold is reached is causes ventilation to increase rapidly to try and counteract this blood pH change.

The lactate threshold itself is just the point at which lactate removal can no longer keep up with lactate production.

Lactate Threshold and Anaerobic Threshold (also known as the Onset of Blood Lactate Accumulation OBLA) are very similar and for most intents and purposes are referred to as the same thing. Lactate Threshold is the point at which lactic acid produce in the muscle during glycolysis is not metabolised as fast as it is being produced. Anaerobic Threshold is the result of this Lactate Threshold, after Lactate Threshold occurs the extra lactic acid from the muscle then acuminates into the blood, once Blood Lactate (BL) level reaches 4 mmol/L it is defined as Anaerobic Threshold or OBLA. Additionally, this Lactic acid is then Broken into lactate and acid (H+ ions). The lactate is recycled and used as an energy source, while the H+ ions are neutralised in the blood, with a by-product being CO2, the CO2 then needs to be expelled through ventilation, this is called Ventilatory Threshold (VT) and is characterised by a sudden heavy ventilation. Put simply Lactate Threshold, Anaerobic Threshold and Ventilatory Threshold happen in a cascade chain and each threshold usually occurs soon after the one before it.

it is to describe the phenomenon that takes place in all athletes- namely the maximal speed or effort that an athlete can maintain and still have no increase in lactate. At this speed or effort, lactate levels in the blood remain constant. it is to describe the phenomenon that takes place in all athletes- namely the maximal speed or effort that an athlete can maintain and still have no increase in lactate.

The blood tube color commonly used for lactate testing is a light green or green-gray top tube. The tube is often referred to as a "lithium heparin" tube, as it contains lithium heparin as an anticoagulant. Lactate levels are typically measured in plasma, and the use of lithium heparin helps prevent blood clotting and allows for accurate testing of lactate levels. It's essential to follow the specific guidelines and recommendations of the laboratory or healthcare provider where the blood sample is being collected, as practices may vary.

Lactate threshold is caused when lactate production exceeds lactate clearance during exercise or increasing intensity.
