how many push ups can you do?

Nope.  When people are on your back, their body weight triples because you have balance them first...then try and do a push up.  I'd guess you'd have to have a 400 lb. bench press to be able to push up your own body weight...and a 250 lb. person on ur back.

Well, it's a start. Pushups are good for building your shoulders, lats (latissimun dorsi: back muscles) and, to a lesser extent, your triceps. So, your muscle definition might be a little more noticable. But to get buffed, you really need to add more exercises. Curls are great for your biceps. If you don't have weights, just find something you can curl 10-12 times per set. For triceps (the muscles behind the biceps) a good exercise is chair lifts. Go up to a chair like you're gonna sit in it, but put your hands on the edge of it, fingers back, palms down, then lower yourself to the ground till your butt barely touches and then raise back up. Good luck!

Just set yourself a goal for how many you can do in 2 minutes.  Do that three times a day, and very soon, you will have a six pack.  Since what you are doing is using your own weight, you can do it everyday without any problems.

It was probably a joke on his part.  Maybe 20 pushups.  Just joking, why don't you ask him.  See what kind of answer he gives you, if its something really stupid, maybe time to move on.

Doing anything in repetition will help your body. One hundred push ups a day is good for your age, and it will help tone you and keep you in shape. You should also think about running, because that keeps your heart in good shape.

Push ups are about the best thing for your chest. there are so many variations of the push up to help build it from all different points. Try doing some with your arms wide apart and then some with your hands close together and see if it doesn't affect a different part of the chest. Then try all sorts of other type..Inclined declined even one armed with legs spread wide.

All you have to do is start a nightly workout of push-ups.start out small and then increase as you get stronger. After a while you will see the results. You will be amazed by the results. You also can do small workouts in your bedrooom. Like jogging in place and doing inclined push-ups b y putting your feet on your bed and do push-ups. Be careful NOW!! Be patient and take your time and dont hurt yourself by rushing!!!!

Girl pushups are good!  Keep doing them and you will get stronger.  Chest press is another good exercise.  It's kinda like the reverse of a pushup.  Lie on your back with dumbells with your arms close to your chest like the bottom of a pushup.  Press your weights into the air and lower back down.

Not a very well put question!  The number of muscles used depends on what action is being performed.  It could be 2 (muscles always work in pairs!) or 8

The one exercise that works the whole body but especially the arms is the full pushup, on your toes and hands. Do 3 sets of 15 each day when you get up in the morning. Hope this helps!
