pinky0926 07/13/17 6:17:03 AM #6:	To a point, yes. You get bigger through progressive resistance training and diet. This means that if you are very untrained/weak, and pushups are sufficiently difficult that you couldn't do more than say, 8 in a set, you must get stronger and to a point "bigger" to achieve them. Being overly simplistic there, but essentially pushups are not really much different from weight training, aside from being easy and requiring less stabilisation. They lose their efficacy quickly though. The point is, once an exercise becomes so easy that you can do a lot of it, it starts to become endurance training, not so much "get bigger and stronger looking" training. TL:DR - if you can only do 5 pushups then yes, doing pushups will make your arms bigger. If you can do 100 pushups then basically no, it's not going to make you discernably bigger. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z316/CeliaOfTheSky/Pinky0926.jpg <cite>pinky0926 posted [p:882828423] in Will doing...
