LOVE YOUR ♥ HEART
Attempt to rhythmically open and tightly close your hand once a second, after a few minutes, it is possible that you would begin to feel very uncomfortable,and it would not be long before you would give up the exercise.
The heart muscle performs a very similar exercise to opening and closing the hand, but it does unceasingly, without stopping, from birth to death, and without tiring, as long as it is maintained in good health.
The human heart is a muscular and the most powerful organ responsible for the pumping of blood round the body. Living organisms cease to exist when their hearts stop functioning. The heart is located within the chest or thoracic cavity and behind the breast bone(sternum). Each pumping action of the heart is called the HEARTBEAT. Man has an average of 72heartbeats per minute when at rest, of which it can be increased to 100 or more during activity or excitement.
The capacity of the heart muscle to work unceasingly and without rest is one of the more surprising facts of living organisms.
