Answer:

The answer to your question is upper body strength.

Step-by-step explanation:

Push-ups increase the ability to perform everyday activities. Some of the more prominent effects of push-ups are helping you improve your muscle strength and tone, especially those of your chest and arms, and contributing to muscle building. Such results can be summarized as increasing or building upper body strength. Partaking in a push-up test would (thus) assess the upper body strength you continuously increase by participating in this exercise.
