Strength and muscle building can help and support the other. You can hardly build strength without muscles, just as you can’t build muscles without strength. But still there are differences.

Think of a Powerlifter or a Stronman like Eddie Hall, looking like a wild bull, probably walking through the stonewall instead of the door. But not jacked or ripped at all. Then think of a Bodybuilder where you can see every isolated muscle. In the vast majority of cases the latter will never reach the strength level of a decent Powerlifter.
