Heart Size

Did you know that your heart size enlarges with regular exercise?  No joke, with regular resistance and endurance training, your heart grows in size along with your heart volume increase as an adaptation to increased work demand.  The contrast is also true in that it will decrease back to pre-training measures within several weeks after training has ceased.  The increased size makes your heart perform more efficiently.  So train on knowing that your heart is bigger ;-)  Now go put that big heart of yours to good use!!!  Happy Heart Day!
