Muscles do not "push". That is, their power comes from shortening (pulling) rather than lengthening (pushing). The human body -- as with most animal bodies -- is organized with groups of muscles that oppose each other, enabling us to push and pull and twist (and shout) -- but each muscle's primary force comes from shortening.
