To me it sounds like someone is getting out of a situation without any damage or trouble to themselves, or even having gained an advantage from the situation.
For example a director of a company may get out of the company in good shape if he gets a big bonus when he leaves.

Are you sure the sentence was not "You're getting out of good shape." ?
"getting" = becoming
"out of" = [a sort of negative] / [away from]
"good shape" = fit, thin
"You are getting out of good shape" = You are becoming fat.
[presumably by not taking enough exercise].
