Machinery. It's what allows someone wearing a suit like that to easily carry both the suit as well as a few hundred extra pounds with very little effort.
A suit like that is basically a human-shaped bulletproof vehicle. A walking tank, of sorts.
It will take a few more decades before things like these become truly useful, but after that, war will never be the same again. Imagine a bulletproof soldier who can run 100 miles while carrying heavy weapons, can "see" through walls, can literally tear a man limb from limb, etc. That's part of the future of war.
