It's in the comics pre-Ang Lee. They kind of overdid it in the movie itself, but more or less that part was comic accurate. That's an element he was trying to emphasize in the film. It's something Peter David played with during his 90s run too and why the flipped dynamic of hulk's anger making him weaker became entertaining for chunks of that comic run. Instead of getting stronger when he got mad, he got weaker, to the point at a certain level he'd turn into Banner but with the savage Hulk persona.

The stronger he gets does sometimes cause him to bulk up more. It depends on the situation, we've rarely seen him pissed off to the point there would be a noticeable difference except for World War Hulk. It's a visual element to the madder he gets stronger he gets aspect of his character. It shows up sporadically in many early comics too. Usually focusing on stronger muscle growth, but the same element applies to that. When a muscle gets bigger it gets bigger. His bones have to follow suit to keep him balanced otherwise he'd be a glob of muscle that can't move because his bones would shatter under the tension of his muscles surrounding them.
