By this definition, the strongest muscle of the body is usually said to be the quadriceps femoris or the gluteus maximus. A shorter muscle will be stronger pound for pound (i.e., by weight) than a longer muscle. The myometrial layer of the uterus may be the strongest muscle by weight in the human body. The external muscles of the eye are conspicuously large and strong in relation to the small size and weight of the eyeball.

In pursuing this idea, you should go after the largest muscle in the body and not the strongest (particularly if it's the masseter), because surface area of the muscle has more impact on calorie expenditure than strength. What would be even better is to train a muscle that is both large and strong.

Each heartbeat propels another 2 ounces of blood through the body. On a daily basis, the heart pumps a minimum of 2,500 gallons of blood. It has the ability to contract over 3 billion times in a person's life. Based on its weight, the masseter is the strongest muscle. This jaw muscle works with others in its group to close the teeth, creating forces of up to 55 pounds on the incisors and 200 pounds on the molars, says the Library of Congress. The gluteus maximus is the largest muscle in the human body, according to the Library of Congress.

The strongest muscle based on its weight is the masseter (jaw) The muscle that can pull with the greatest force is the soleus. http://www.loc.gov/rr/scitech/mysteries/muscles.html. Muscular strength usually refers to the ability to exert a force on an external object—for example, lifting a weight.

There is no one answer for this question since there are different ways to measure strength. There is absolute strength (maximum force), dynamic strength (repeated motions), elastic strength (exert force quickly), and strength endurance (withstand fatigue). There are three types of muscles in the human body: cardiac, smooth and skeletal.

Dynamic Effort Training Notes. The goal of dynamic-effort work is to move a weight as fast as possible. (Note that when doing DE pullups on back day, you’ll be lifting your body weight.) Aim for 60–70% of your 1RM on these exercises. If that feels too heavy, or your latter few sets get sluggish, reduce the weight.

The strongest muscle based on its weight is the masseter. With all muscles of the jaw working together it can close the teeth with a force as great as 55 pounds (25 kilograms) on the incisors or 200 pounds (90.7 kilograms) on the molars. Muscles of the Uterus. The uterus sits in the lower pelvic region.

The strongest muscle in the body is debatable. Some physiologists believe it's the masseter (used for chewing), while others claim it's the gluteus maximus (buttocks), or the rectus femoris (part of the quadriceps in the thigh). It's not easy to determine partly because muscles don't work alone.

Transcript of The Masseter is the strongest muscle in the body based on weight. The Masseter is the strongest muscle in the body based on weight. Working with all the other muscles in the jaw, it can close the teeth with a force of 55 pounds on the incisors and 200 pounds on the molars. It is the primary chewing muscle.
