Your heart pumps blood by contracting and releasing. That is the beat you feel. As it contracts, it pushes blood through the heart and valves close behind it then the heart releases and it fills with more blood.

∙ 11y agoYes, your heart beat should match your pulse rate in the rest of your body. The heart's contraction is what causes both your heart beat and the feeling of an arterial blood surge that is felt as the pulse.

About how many times does the heart beat each minute to pump blood around the body?
There is around 5 litres of blood in your body at any given time and the heart pumps on average 70 ml of blood per beat. Most people have an average resting heart rate of about 70 beats a minute (approximately). So if you multiply the amount of blood that the heart can pump by the number of beats per minute, you actually get around 4.9 litres of blood, almost all of it. So, in a minute, you will pump all the blood througout your body.
