| | | Basically it works the pecs, shoulders, triceps, maybe a little in the abs. the closer the grip the more it works your triceps |

| | | Obsession
It is important in the pursuit of a fit body, to also realize obsessions. When your daily workout consists of one excercise repeated many times, you are focusing too much on one section of the body. The chest is a great area to work, but so many people get carried away and they begin to neglect other regions. These regions often include the muscles of the legs. In my practice, I have seen it too often and would love to see more people working on their whole bodies as well as there pectoralii muscles. ( Although I must say that a well-worked chest does look great). |

| | The push up offers more than just improving chest/triceps and shoulder strength, it provides shoulder stability, and core stability. It really depends on the variant of push up, I've got a running list of 20+ push up variants that I have used successfully. The "lowly" push up is an excellent overall exercise!
