What causes muscle aches in flu?

What causes one to have muscle aches when he gets the flu. I understand that the fever and glands are the response of the body to fight of the infection, but what about the aches?

The aches are the body's normal response to fever. While a fever acts to help fight off the flu virus, the body's other chemical reactions don't function as well causing aches.

A persistently low body temperature can also cause body aches.
