To get a compound to the point of let off does need some degree of strength, even if you are lucky enough not to notice it any more.
I think that strength is developed through shooting though. If someone is really keen to build that then possibly buying a cheap 70lb bow and shooting that every so often would help.
I can shoot left handed, but only out to about 48lb compound.

While I think weight training can help, I think most would benifit from improved form and practise more than weight training.
