Do you actually believe that doing push ups is a good way to train biceps?

You do know that I don't just do regular ones? -_- I do ones that are close in(three inches apart with hands). It works mainly biceps.

Sabb:
Certain pushups strain the biceps more I think we've determined that. For example if you're doing pushups with your arms directly beside you while keeping your elbows parallel to your body's length (more like a military pushup) it strains the bicep a lot more. They aren't the most efficient means of gaining larger biceps of course, but if it works for him then who cares?
But Cariad if you're aiming to get larger biceps but don't want to use/don't have access to weight lifting equipment then investing in a pair or two of dumbbells for curls and such may be a good idea, or doing chinups. Reverse grip chinups focus on biceps a lot more.

Lol...

For your arms soreness Cariad I guess you could try to get someone massage your arms or other points that hurt or put Icyhot on the place it hurts usually it helps too, I also suggest basically not really doing everything together, if you do arms, go on for a day only arms, meaning lets say
Sunday - Arms
Tuesday - Legs
Thursday - Cardio
I usually do 9 minutes of abs at the end of each workout which is basically like 20 reverse crunches, 20 toe touches (if you can't keep your legs straight for long then short crunches) and 30 seconds of plank and I repeat it about 4 times.
