It's because, as Charles Poliquin notes in his GERMAN BODY COMP PROGRAM, "strength is the basis of all other physical qualities, so even if you want to go for a walk, you still need some strength to get out of your chair."
If you are overweight or obese, as two out of three adults are (for example) in North America and the UK, strength training will prepare you for aerobic exercise like brisk walking. If you use strength training to increase your lean muscle mass, you will burn additional calories 24 hours a day (as opposed to aerobic exercise, which only burns extra calories during and immediately after it). If you use strenuous strength training to increase the release of growth hormone, it will help regulate your percentage of body fat.
Although being fit is not the same as having an optimal percentage of body fat, they are usually correlated. You will not feel or look fit if you are too fat. It is extremely difficult to achieve and maintain a healthful percentage of body fat without strength training. Furthermore, it is not boring, which increases exercise adherence.
