Answer:

It is that kind of burning sensation you feel in the muscle during a workout due to a quick buildup of lactic acid.

Answer:

Acute muscle soreness (AMS) is the pain felt in muscles during and immediately, up to 24 hours, after strenuous physical exercise. The pain appears within a minute of contracting the muscle and it will disappear within two or three minutes or up to several hours after relaxing the muscle.
