After a week of heartache and pain, I turned to google looking for comfort, for answers, for similar heartbreak stories, and there it was.. The Million dollar statement: The heart is a muscle..

I had recently started attending body pump classes, so I am very much familiar with the word ” Muscle”

This is how the instructor uses the word muscle in a sentence:

  1. Body pump will grow your muscles if you do the right moves
  2. Repetition of a movement is important for your muscles
  3. Don’t stick to the same weight, add more weight every time to move your muscles
  4. Kill Fat, grow muscles
  5. Squat lower, it’s good for your leg muscles

Body pump class for the Heart, aka Heart Pump

Is anyone doing this Class for the first time?

Great! Welcome to Heart Pump 101, this is a heart focused workout. For 50 minutes, you will be working your heart muscle in the way it should work, reminding your heart of its natural task, which is pumping blood.

Why are you here?

People join this class when they’ve given the liberty to their heart to feel and control their lives and emotions. They get sidetracked somehow and the heart muscle adopts a mind of its own. It weakens the human being, makes him more vulnerable and susceptible to loving another human being, it distracts him from his goals and creates a new section for him and his so called soulmate, a shared section where he dreams for two, thinks for two and plans for two..

You are here to restore some order back to your heart. Most people who attend this class suffer from ” Heartache”. Muscle damage, strain or tear is a very common thing, it happens when you muscle is overstretched or torn. It can be in the form of tearing of the muscle fibers and the tendons attached to the muscle.

While this is not physiotherapy for the muscle, it will however teach you to prevent further injuries of similar nature. The more you attend this class, the less prone you are to the pains of the heart. You will be able to detect the rise of the all too familiar ” heartache” symptoms and you will have the treatment ready before it hits strong.

Enjoy the session, try to do as many moves as you can. Reps are key so make sue you do all of them. Don’t get stuck with the same weight and try to add along the way. You will feel stronger and gradually bring your heart back to its natural state, reminding it of its basic function and keeping it away from feelings that will just lead to some water retention and refined sugar intake.

Let’s Get this pumping Started!

Enjoy the Session
