Morphology
The noun phrase is directly compositional: 'muscle' names the target tissue and 'building' (the gerund of 'build') denotes the process of creating or increasing. This standard noun+gerund/compound pattern is cross-linguistically common and predictable, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
Muscle building paints a simple picture: muscle is the body part and building is making something by adding pieces, like putting bricks together. So doing exercises and eating well slowly 'builds' bigger, stronger muscles, which is why the phrase means 'the process of increasing muscle size and strength'.
