The article actually doesn't say what the title seems to imply:

Women were more physically attracted to brawny men, especially for a fling. But when it comes to finding a long-term partner, they tend to pick a regular man over a mate with huge biceps.

And this:

He and colleagues interviewed 99 male undergraduates about their sexual histories. Muscular men were twice as likely to have had more than three sex partners than less-built types.

sounds to me more like men who work out are more promiscuous, not like women are more attracted to them (except for a "fling" as my first quote said).
