The leg muscles are the largest in the body and when one walks, bikes or whatever their compression and release help circulate blood/oxygen throughout the body.

Maybe you can refresh my memory of the exact number, but I have read that something like 70% of the human muscle mass is from the waste down. When you are walking, you also use muscles above the waist - the abdominal and back muscles must work to support the upper part of the body including the head. I notice how hard my lower back muscles are working when I am climbing a steep mountain.

I think I heard somewhere the tongue was among the strongest muscles in the body, that has been proven here time and again. Jim
