What do press ups do?

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

This really depends on the individual performing the exercise. Explosive press ups are great as a high impact workout, really impacting the muscles. Normal press ups are great as well. Alternate the two for a maximum workout.

the first thing they do in the morning is 50 press ups and 100 sit ups (my dads an x marine).

There is no set amount of press ups that a person is allowed to do in a day. A person can do as many press ups as their body will allow them to do. You do not want to over do it because you could strain your muscles.

push ups an press ups

push ups and pull ups

Press ups do increase chest muscle. When you're doing then it uses your pecks and the muscle above them.

sit ups, push ups, crunches, and military press

Neither is better, they work different muscles.

doing bicep curls, push ups, the bench press, and chin ups

yeah press up do increase your strength

Some chest exercises to build muscle are: Barbell bench press, dumbbell bench press, explosive push ups, inclined bench press, decline bench press, push ups, incline dumbbell flyes.

25 sit ups 25 press ups 25 squats 50 jumping jacks

you will have verry sore legs arms and maybe even your neck

Exercise. Run, bike, gym, sit ups, press ups etc.

I don't know, but i have seen a woman do 61 sit-ups in a minute.

Run 50 metres, 10 press ups, 10 sit ups, 10 squat thrusts, run 50 metres... Repeat 10 times. Each time you perform the whole exercise, add one press up, sit up and squat thrust until you reach 20.

sit-ups for your stomach press-ups for your arms and lean against a wall in the squat position for your legs :).

Push ups. As you work you shoulder muscles more than you would in a bench.

overload means to overload your fittness or to do more work e.g if you 30 press ups a week no proberlem your fittness will increase but not by much. but when youerload your body e.g instead of doing 30 press ups a week you du 50 a week and then your fittness will increase by more than if you do 30 press ups a week

pectorals help your arm muscles an awful lot, they help lift the arm and when you exercise doing things like pull ups, press ups and bench press it helps your arms to push or pull up.

You could bench press or do pull ups ;-)

Pectoralis Major and Anterior Deltoids

none he never existed.

One-arm push-ups (or press-ups) are a very different exercise. They work different muscles in different ways. They are generally much more difficult, but because they work on the body differently, they're not considered superior.

to build muscles for anything are..........squats,bench press,lifting waits,crunches,pull ups,sit ups,and push ups.

lots of reps. of push ups everyday, chest press machine, or bench press would work too..... for push ups at least 20-30 (or more, depends how many you can do) of them everyday and then increase the number when you feel comfortable..... chest press and bench press are up to you when determining the weight and reps.

You should do 16 or 36 sit ups a day for a full week 16 or 36 press ups for a week dont miss a day

at any age you should be able to bench press your own weight

press twice the switch Numbers/Letters then press twice the circled arrow how to use diad

I think it might be a bicep and a tricep

Push ups, trust me it helps

press b or the other letters

Command W / CTRL W

Bench press Push-ups

For muscular press/push-ups for the arms. Endurance is probably sit ups or jogging/sprinting. These have to be done regularly.

They were referred to as 'press ups' in earlier years.

press-ups, lifting weights

just do one hundered press ups a day

It depends on how good of shape you are in if your not very healthy yes it is bad if you are fit and a athlete its good

sit ups are the best thing to get a 6 pack/abs but press ups are great for your arms. you should do both cause they look great together- the arms and 6pack/ abs

you can make your upper body more muscle by doing sit ups bench press push ups or any thing like that

press ups crunches pull ups and tricep dips

A very good question indeed. Using dumbbells (I'm assuming you mean dumbbell bench presses) allows you to increase the weight meaning you can exert a greater force with your muscles, meaning bigger pecs. However press ups develop what is called functional strength, which is basically strength you can do in day to day tasks. Also press ups work your core. I would suggest using both to get the benefits of both

to build serious muscle you need to perform resistance based exercises (weights). the best exercises for home based work outs, without the weights are your own body weight baring exercises. try: press-ups -- sit-ups -- pull ups -- handstand press-ups -- single leg squats. these all have different variations, by placing your hands in different places will work different aspects of your muscle groups. press ups-- further your hands out, more your chest-- closer your…

If you are wanting to build chest muscle's, position hands at a wider 'stance'. say for example, slightly wider than the width of your shoulders. if you want a mix of chest and tricep, position hands under shoulders. if you want mainly tricep then place hands closer together, directly under chest. when you can comfortably perform this, raise your legs onto a bench and perform the same. when you find this easy, try clapping between…

It's an OK way, but it'll only target some muscles. Do pull ups too and you'll get a better result.

by doing lots of exercise like press-ups and streches

Yes, sit-ups and press-ups are good. I have been doing 50 of each per day and I have lost a lot of stomach fat

Well, first you need to work your upper body out. Lots of pull-ups and push-ups will help. Before you do your press handstand, you need to know how to do a regular handstand. (learn a regular 1 first). *TIP- USE HIP FLEXORS TO HELP YOUR PRESS HANDSTAND. start in a raised straddle position and gently raise your hips and legs until you are in a simple handstand. PRACTICE!
