When you want to work the lower chest, an incline push-up is the way to go. You might find it hard to develop serious size with this move, though.

The pull-up is known as a back exercise. Much of your upper body is involved in the action, but your chest is only a minor player.

An incline push-up is a variation of a push-up that engages more of the lower to middle areas of the pectoralis major.

Wrist pain can ruin a push-up workout. If poor form is the cause, it can easily be rectified so that push-ups become part of your repertoire.

Push-ups are an effective exercise, but they won't give you the fitness results that you desire on their own.

Push-ups seem simple enough, yet some people find them impossible. Reasons people can't do a push-up vary from poor training to actual injury.

Neck throbbing after exercising can indicate a muscle strain or damage to the connective tissue. Take pain seriously, though, as it could indicate disc issues.

As a woman you might agonize over the size of your breasts. Some women may want their breasts to be larger, while others suffer from back pain and desperately want to decrease their bust size. As you participate in exercise, your body burns calories and builds muscle, which can lead to physical changes.

A regular push-up routine may help lift the chest muscle that lies underneath your breasts, but it won't affect your cup size.

Pushups increase your functional health -- your ability to perform the basic tasks of life. The number of pushups you're able to complete in correct form during a set amount of time gives a measure of your fitness.

Picking between the dumbbell and barbell incline press is a matter of goal. You'll push more weight with a barbell, but encourage more stability with dumbbells.

Working your chest at home without access to weights is challenging, but doable. Activate the lower chest with body-weight exercises such as push-ups and dips.
