My Triceps are Bigger than my Biceps?
Your triceps are ment to be bigger....after all they are two thrids of the upper arm....people seem to focus on increasing the size of their biceps, this doesn't make there arms look much bigger and also can cause great damage. If I were you I would work out your triceps just as much as biceps, if not more ;)
Which muscle groups are worked when doing pushups?
The push up is actually what is termed a 'total body' exercise. While it is known as an upper body exercise, it works more muscles than just the chest and the arms. Done from the toes, a push up challenges you to push 60% of your bodyweight, while working your abdominals and your glutes (butt). In fact, the push up is a fantastic abdominal exercise, so make sure it becomes part of your exercise program! Doing a push up from the knees is simpler and less effective.
