Muscle strength is the power muscles can use. The larger and stronger your muscle fibers are, the easier it is to do everyday jobs. And because you use a minor percentage of your total strength , you become tired less easily and so can work harder and longer. Besides, strength  could be a life-saver in an emergency if you had to lift someone, for example, or run for help, or even run away. Strength furthermore may be a part in healing time after an injury.
