push-up is a exercise that primarily targets the chest and to a lesser degree also targets the shoulders, triceps and abs.

Simply explained and simple sounding to complete.
Can't argue with this one. Pushups are a staple of any chest workout.
Great simple no weight work out with numerous variations available to target specific muscle groups
Can't go wrong with push-ups. It's amazing how toasted you can get your chest, shoulders, triceps, and even back to certain degree no matter how strong you are. Push-ups, when done with strict form, are actually a very underrated core exercise too. Mix up your grip (check out some of the other 50+ different push-up exercises on the site as well to add some variety and target different muscle groups).
One of the best excercises for upperbody and core. Still have problems with this one due to my wrist and shoulder, but I'll just do it on my knuckles and that will be fine :)
Great exercise. Now for one finger push-ups! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n23jEbQXYtA
The push-up is a great exercise! There are tons of push-up variations, and the form is pretty simple. Push-ups will give you a good burn in your shoulders, chest, triceps and your core. Of all the push-ups attributes my favorite is the fact that it's a 0 excuse exercise, Meaning; that you don't need any expensive equipment or a gym membership to do them. if you don't workout regularly push-ups are a great place to start. Just commit to doing as many push-ups as you can every night before bed for say 30 days and you'll see strength improvements with a small amount of time invested. So drop down and give me 20!
If I had to only pick a few exericses to do for the rest of my life, the push-up would definitely be in the top 3! The body movement is so practical and, when done with strict form, engages so many muscles. I defitenly recommend adding push-ups to any workout regime. Ladies, if you can't do them yet, work up to it! Try doing them on your knees and if you can't do that, then try doing them at just a slight angle on a wall. It's worth it!
Push ups are great. However, I seem to have a problem with my chest. I have fat/excess water in my chest which gives out the look of "man boobs" I was wondering if anyone knows any other exercise that can help out with burning fat in the chest in specific.
Great exercise that works almost all of your muscle groups. I recommend 3 sets of 20 reps, and doing it at least 3 days a week. If you take my advice you will definitely see results within a month.
