This is a slang expression that refers to body-building: it is speaking about doing exercises (called a "work-out") to build up your muscles, by lifting weights at the gym. If you have ever seen body-builders working out at the gym, they lift heavy barbells and other weighted objects, which eventually gives them bigger muscles.
