Don't bother; join a gym :)

Nobody in existence EVER - and I do mean that - got a nice chest and arms from doing things like pushups.

Yeah the problem is two fold. 1) Pushups and the other limited excercises you can do for upper body are so few in selection that you end up doing the same thing all the time and 2) As you get stronger it's difficult to increase the resistance. So it's kind of like doing benchpressing with 120 lbs on the bar but never being able to raise the weight.

WHOA! Hold the train, I know many, many kids that have gotten big by pushups, dips, and the such. Ya'll who are saying it can't happen evidently aren't trying enough. Sorry, but I guess it's something ya gotta see for ur own eyes. But, it CAN happen.
