Tongue is the strongest
muscle in the body-Myth

As for the myth that the
tongue is the strongest

muscle in the body, this
doesn't seem to be true
by any definition of
"strength." The masseter,
or jaw muscle, is the
strongest due its
mechanical advantage, in
which the muscles attach
to the jaw to form a
lever. The quadriceps and
gluteus maximus have
the highest concentration
of striated muscle fibers,
a pure measure of
strength. The heart is the
strongest muscle if you
measure strength as
continuous activity
without fatigue.
