A lot of core strength contributes greatly in throwing, so ab work outs are always good. Lifting weights is a good thing too. You don't have to lift heavy though. Even light weights build muscle.

Keep in mind that muscle isn't everything in throwing events. Although arm strength is good to have, technique is the best thing to worry about. Your form is what sends your implement further than muscle does.
