Answer 1

no. but if it does, i would think your shoulders or behind the ribcage

Answer 2

Push-ups are very good. But most people think of the simple ones, but there are many different types of push-ups that work different parts of your upper body. Wide, Regular, Diamond, Feet elevated, one-handed, all of these work different parts of the chest/arms. And you will find yourself using muscles you didn't even know you had. Wide and diamond work your back the most

Answer 3

i know push ups is a good exercise it works not only your back but it works the whole body from head to toe.even your heart also feels the pressure so push ups is a heathy exercise

Answer 4

They are not the best exercise for your back but wide armed pushups would work the muscles along the back of shoulder blades well.  Superman curls are good for the long muscles running down your back.  Just lie on stomach with your arms stretched out in front of you then lift both your feet and arms up at same time.  Hold as long as you can then slowly let down and repeat as many time as you can manage.  This also helps prevent back pain if you do a lot of sit-ups as it balances out the muscles.
