Video Lags After I Render It

When ever I open up the video that I finished rendering, it is choppy and stutters every 2 seconds. I can't figure why. I just bought After Effects today and I have no idea how it works.

‌The default rendering is lossless which was never designed for playback. After Effects is a tremendously complex application with nearly endless possibilities and you can't just jump in and start using it without spending a little a little time learning the basics.

The third section is on rendering and it's just the start.

I've did some research on what you said about how the video wasn't meant for playback. I downloaded the Adobe Encoder, could I use that to compress the files to where they can be used for playback?
