Best Answer

The Major muscle used while doing a push up is your chest - Pectorals.

Other significant muscles that are used in a push up are your deltoids (shoulder) and Triceps.

Push up is a great warm up exercise and can warm up your delts, pecs and triceps to prepare them for a solid workout session.
