Yes and no.
Biceps are used for pulling motions that bend your elbow, such as "curl" lifts, tug-of-war, hugging, and drinking a glass of water. They aren't terribly helpful for pushing motions, like push-ups, patty-cake, punching your pillow, or break-dancing; your triceps (not biceps) are the primary upper-arm muscles used in these activities.
But there's more to it than that.
In order to have bulging biceps, you will also need to train your triceps. In order to have strong triceps (which are used in push-ups), you will need to develop your biceps. These muscle groups work opposite each other, and you will have an unbalanced system if you try to do one without the other.
Imagine someone with massive, bulging biceps, but very weak and tiny triceps; not only would this person look pretty silly, but they might not even be capable of straightening their arm all the way, because of the constant tension created by the muscle tone of the well-developed biceps (this is also the reason why full range of motion should be used during all muscle-building exercises).
In short, push-ups do not directly do much for your biceps because they are not the primary muscles used in that activity, but they do help build your triceps, which as we learned from the system balance described above, assists in the proper development of the upper arms, including the biceps (but you will also need a different exercise, such as chin-ups or preacher curls, to take advantage of any help that push-ups may have offered the biceps).
The pull-ups exercise uses the biceps muscles as an auxiliary to the main group, the lats. Thus, the pull-ups will help strengthen, tone, and build your biceps, but aren't the best way to go about it.
Of course.
But not as effectively as normal bicep curls.
Pull-ups are best used to train lats
Yes they do as well as your triceps, shoulders, back, legs, torso, chest and forearms. There are different types of push ups that workout different pars of the body.
Pull ups build biceps, lats and perhaps rear deltoids.
Push ups build chest, shoulders, and triceps.
No. Pull ups exercise your upper back, biceps, traps and lats.
no it keeps your biceps tone up
yes
Well you can always just do push-ups or pull-ups bench pressing is always good for your biceps
Biceps
Well you can always just do push-ups or pull-ups bench pressing is always good for your biceps
Press ups help biceps, lats, stomach, and triceps I personally think that press ups work more then push ups and I am a strengthening coach for a high school
doing bicep curls, push ups, the bench press, and chin ups
It is good to do crunches because it will strengthen your core and push ups are good because it will strengthen your biceps.
biceps, obliques,quads and abs
Chin-ups.
Biceps and triceps. Push ups for the triceps and curls for the biceps.
Dips target different sets of muscle than push-ups do. Push ups target your pecks, biceps, and to a lesser extent, your triceps.Dips mainly target your triceps.So, bottom line? For well rounded arms and a strong chest, do both.
Weightlifting Techniques that work your arms (bicep/hammer/preacher/french military/bench press, renegade rows, etc). Especially forearm workouts like IYTWs, forearm curls, and Zotterman curls. Push ups, Chin ups, Pull ups, and boxing (especially with weights on your arms or hands) can also help.
