Furthermore I must ask: can anyone confirm that pushups will also build up pec muscles substantially? I would assume they would quickly build them initially, but the benefit tapers off just as quickly (as you aren't pushing that much more weight).

If you want to work the chest more while doing push try spacing your hands farther apart. We always called them wide push-ups. This will focus more on your shoulder and chest rather than your triceps like regular or diamond push-ups do.

Also by increasing the reps you can increase the tone of the muscles, this will allow you to continue to benefit from doing push-ups even if the weight is no longer hard for you to move. If you are looking to build muscle mass you want to do a low rep, high weight work out, which push-ups and sit-ups are not suitable for.
