Pushups(many different kinds) mainly for chest, triceps, biceps and upper back. I mainly do these.
Situps are good for lower abs as my grotesquely huge friend says...

Actually I am. If they don't hurt after a day of rest, I continue. Even if they don't hurt the day after I workout, I rest. If they still hurt even a little bit two days later, I rest another day. Usually I have to wait two days.
Also, I haven't been exercising in about 2 - 3 weeks. Could my body have adjusted to NOT exercising...?

Pretty sure you are suppose to wait at least one day. (Should keep a schedule.)

"Also, I haven't been exercising in about 2 - 3 weeks. Could my body have adjusted to NOT exercising...?"
I imagine that's a big part of the reason too. :p

Oh man yes. That can make a VERY noticeable difference sometimes. I was sick for 2-3 weeks recently and had to completely stop all exercise and was just hanging around the house and w.e. Pretty noticeable loss of muscle specifically in my biceps as well as triceps slightly. Gaining back that muscle is much easier than gaining it initially however. Probably takes maybe have the time.
