For example, If i started a little regimen of doing 200 pushups and 200 situps a day...will that improve my upper body any in say a month of doing it?
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
push ups and sit ups..

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Good luck for keeping those 200 REAL pushups EVERYDAY if you've NEVER done anything like that.
Wanna do fun exercise? Learn to BREAK DANCE. Just doing a couple of handstands, backspins and handspins everyday will improve your shape in no time. Although it's pretty hard to get started. Unlike pushups, not everyone can just "naturally" do a handstand...

No it wont... but if you put on a backpack and fill it up with a lot of stuff and keep your pushups around 6-10 and you hold weighs on your chest to keep your situps 8-12 then at least you have some intesnity. Muscle grow because they need to not because we want... you need to give them a reason.
Do four sets of pushups 6-10 with backpack on bacm
Do four sets of sit ups 8-12 with weight on chest
Do some sort of exercise for your back to
And don't do this exercise every day.
My best tip would be to sign up for a gym and do a complete body workout.

You're insane... 200 push ups and 200 sit ups will not do anything except build endurance.
You may burn some calories which may lead to lower b/f.. You may seem more defined but not any bigger.
There is not point in doing 200 pushups and situps unless your in the military or some kind of endurance sport maybe.
If you wanna learn to be bigger join a gym, lift hard and eat right.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
agreed, all those pushups and situps are pointless if thats all your doing. if you want a bigger chest, your going to need to hit the gym. if you want abs, your going to need to watch your diet. diet is 50% of getting the body you want. the other 30% is training, the last 20% is supplementation.

Dont entirely discount bodyweight exercises. Bodyweight training is an excellent way to start building muscle. Start with doing three sets of 15 with 30 second rest intervals. When that gets easy start doing more. When that gets easy start doing them off your sofa. When that gets easy start doing them from a handstand position etc...
Did any of you happen to watch the olympic gymnastics competition? Thats the extreme of what bodyweight training will do for you. None of those guys lift weights yet they are all ripped and VERY strong. (your average 160lb olympic gymnast can bench well over 300lbs)
Now im not suggesting you build a routing just around pushups as others have said you are going to need to do some other sorts of weight lifting. Pushups dont do much for your legs. All im saying is that you can definitely use pushups as a mass building exercise.

actually they are prefect for me.
Besides a tad of a gut, I am very happy with my size, I dont' want to get bigger. I am 5'9, 170 with 11.8-12% d epending on what I eat.
I am trying to tone up, not gain mass, which is actually the last thing I want to do beause I have a wide base as it is.
However, if you are trying to get bigger, they won't HURT you, but they don't help you as much either

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

how do you do them in handstand positions?

Master Don Juan
Fairly obvious from the name.
Get into a handstand position and start doing a pressing movement. I have good balence in handstands, so I just handstand, walk on my hands backwards until I reach a wall, and use the wall just to lean lightly against.
If you cant do this, Sort of try and crawl up the wall, crouching down and walking your legs up a wall until you air fairly upright.
Jobs a kipper.

The delts, yep.
Consider it for yourself to help get more strength in your delts - your gains have been a bit slow with overhead presses - maybe this will be more effective for you.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
you should look at total body conditioning instead of focusing on just the ab area and pec's.
there are many excersises which dont incorporate weights which you should do to target everything.
what are your goals you should ask yourself before taking part in any excersise? dont waste time.

I think they are almost useless... there's no such thing as getting "toned".... the so called "toned" look is all about bodyfat, although 200 push-ups might just count as a bit of cardio if you do them almost non-stop and you might lose a bit of b/f.
With that said, if your cool with that and you want to do weight-less workouts these are a must:
A chin-up bar
something to do dips on... feel free to improvise but if you can get a dip station go for it
An excercise ball
I wouldn't do 200 reps of anything, cut that down and do the following workout:
Pushups on chairs
Chest Dips (leaning forward, head down, chin tucked in)
Pull-Ups
Hand-stand presses
Squats
Lunges
Crunches on excercise ball
I think that's about as good as you can get without weights.
