Muscle tissue plays an essential role in supporting the structural system of the human body, which encompasses bones, joints, cartilage, and connective tissues. Scientifically, muscles and bones work in concert to facilitate movement, maintain posture, and protect internal organs. The musculoskeletal system is a well-characterized partnership between muscles (which generate force) and the skeletal system (which provides leverage and structural integrity). Numerous anatomical and physiological studies demonstrate that muscles attach to bones via tendons and, through contraction, produce the movement necessary for locomotion and daily activities. Additionally, muscles help stabilize joints and contribute to skeletal alignment, reducing the risk of injury and degenerative conditions. Loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) is strongly associated with reduced bone density and increased fracture risk, further underscoring the interdependence of muscle and structural health. Clinical interventions (such as resistance training) that enhance muscle strength have been shown to improve bone health and overall structural system function. Thus, the use of muscle to support the structural system is robustly validated by scientific evidence.
