A member asked:
Can there be any exercise like 'push-ups' that'll build chest muscles?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes : There are all sort of calisthenics like push ups that build chest muscles. Incline push up with your leg elevated work more on the upper chest muscles. Dips between chairs works more on the lower chest. Push up with are far apart puts more pressure on the middle of the chest. Hope that helps.
