Best Answer

The largest by mass is the gluteus maximus, which is the muscle that forms your butt. It's also fairly strong (its job is basically to keep your torso upright), but the muscle that exerts the most raw force per ounce is probably the masseter, which is the muscle that you use to close your jaw. It can exert over 200 pounds of force at your molars, and isn't all that big.
