Generally, stronger muscles are able to propel a body to greater speeds. Muscles produce force, and as that force overcomes the mass of the body, it will gain velocity, which is often measured as speed. There is little direct correlation between speed and the mass (size) of the muscles; smaller bodies tend to move faster (twitch muscles), which larger, heavier bodies do not.
