  Does push up train strength only or it help to build mass , in arms and chest area?
  
  Should ppl do Diamond push up or normal push up

  its good to train for NS and muscular endurance.
  
  If you want chest mass and strength,do weighted dips

  weighted pushups can train strength and mass
  
  diamond pushups are a killer to triceps
  
  one arm pushups train strength as well
