This is a great exercise for shaping and sculpting your chest. It's a great exercise to do if you're on a fat burning or muscle-definition workout cycle. On the other hand, if you are looking to put muscle mass on your chest you should do exercises that involve the use of barbells and dumbbells.

Another point worth mentioning is that you don't need to go heavy with this exercise. This exercise is about performing the movement smoothly and getting a good "squeeze" at the end of the motion. Thus take your time in executing the movement correctly at proper tempo.
