The strongest muscle in the human body

*Despite the photo of me flexing my biceps, unfortunately biceps are not the strongest muscle in the human body 💪🏼

This muscle is contracting and working the day you are born.

This muscle's responsibility is huge.

If this muscle is not able to function it does not bode well.

This muscle is of course your heart.

When it comes to “training your heart” this does not have to mean going for a run. Think about the times your heart rate has been high.

You can get a very high heart rate from just lifting weights (those of you who train with me know this all too well), whether it be deadlifting for 1 rep, pushing a sled, high reps, or even a short rest period.

A question I have been asked numerous times is how high should my heart rate go? – And the answer is that it does not matter how high your HR (heart rate) goes but how quickly your HR returns to normality.

For example, if your HR goes from 190bpm to 100bpm in 2 minutes that would be a quick recovery.

The stronger this muscle is the easier your life will be.

Running to the car in the rain will not be a problem.

Moving furniture around the house is not super taxing.

Playing with your children or grandchildren becomes more enjoyable.

Just another reason to train and move 😁
