The type of muscles that wrap around bones are typically skeletal muscles, but muscles do not make the bones light. What makes bones light are the fact that they are porous. There are a lot of holes within the bones that make it lighter, but those holes make sort of arcs and what not, similar to those in the Eiffel tower, for example. They are light weight, but very strong.
