The heart has to pump blood to all the cells of the body. Increased body mass (more cells) makes it harder for the heart to send the blood out to all the cell. It has to work harder and causes it to give out over time. The heart muscles do not get larger like the muscles of our body when we exercise a lot. It would be like trying to pull a heavy camper with a very small car.
