Horse hearts are built for exertion. The average horse can go from a resting heart rate of about 34 beats per minute to 220 or 240 while racing – faster than a human heart during maximum exertion.“One thing that’s really unique about horses is that they have an incredible capacity to move blood around their bodies -- their heart rate can go really high and still be safe,” said University of Connecticut researcher Sarah Reed, editor in chief of the journal Animal Frontiers.
They also have a lung capacity of 60 liters – 10 times that of humans.“That massive lung field allows for oxygen to transfer from the air into their blood, which is vitally important for sustaining aerobic energy,” Farmer said.in the journal Science found that a genetic mutation enables horses to avoid negative side effects of super high energy production.
“Horses are great athletes because they can deliver a lot of oxygen to their muscles – way more than an elite human can —and by elite human, I mean Olympic athlete,” said Gianni Castiglione, the study’s co-author. “They have a bigger tank of gas and they have a more efficient engine … and this mutation is contributing to both of those things.”A race horse works out at Churchill Downs Tuesday, April 29, 2025, in Louisville, Ky.
