Does this work out my chest also?

Question

i do push up leaning against a counter does dat just work out my arms or chest too?

Answer 1

no because those kind of pushups are not considered actual pushups.

an actual pushup is when you are actually lifting your body weight, not leaning it against something.

try doing some real push up and that will work out  your chest as well as your arms.  

Answer 2

Push ups is a great compound workout, know matter what why you do its working out your chest (its compound) so your working out your

Triceps, Biceps, Chest, Abs, and back.

Just depending how far apart your arms are from each other well focus on a pacific muscle.

and to answer your question about the counter press yes but i think flat on the ground or decline its the best for all push ups.

Answer 3

It does very little to benefit your chest. It will help to gradually strengthen your arms and chest and you should really do proper push ups. It is often underestimated but it is still one of the most effective chest exercises

Answer 4

just do normal push ups wimp

Answer 5

Arms and chest, just as if you were on the floor - except the workout is much less strenuous.

Answer 6

Yes it does. But when u can get enough stregnth to do a push-up it works out even more.
