Pushups will tone your chest, but will not really help you build much size or strength unless you add resistance by using a backpack full of books, sand or rocks like acevcali and I stated above. And to get much better results you are going to need free weights. |

Here's my two cents, and I'll just go ahead and give you some well rounded information to help you out.
I have limited knowledge on the subject, but I'm sure I can help. Take this with a grain of salt should even one person attempt to counter this information.
Okay, first and foremost.
The Dumbells, okay 15 pounds each, not good for much, but better than nothing.
First, try chest flys, and military presses. I don't recommend isolation exercises, but you could also do bicep curls, wrist curls, rows. Not very effective, but it'll supplement your bodyweight exercises.
Now onto the bodyweight exercises
Pushups will effectively help strengthen your triceps mostly, but also your core, chest and shoulders. There's plenty of variations of this exercise, and a quick google search is all you need to discover them. My favorite besides traditional pushups is the handstand pushups.(HSPU)
DIPS!!!! These will be the best bodyweight exercise for your chest from what I've learned and experienced. Hey, can't argue with results. Although this may be difficult with your predicament, so lets go ahead and scratch that out. Just a last note, if you have the opportunity to do them in a workout, do so.
Squats, these are a must. Because to effectively gain muscle ANYWHERE, you must do full body workouts. And squats although not weighted, will still help you gain what little muscle you can. I have very little knowledge on this aspect, someone else will surely help you with this part. All I can do is tell you it works and I don't know why.. lol
I'm leaving now.
Bye.

Incline flys are another in the list of upper chest exercises that helps to work out the entire upper chest muscle group. They also use a weight lifting bench and dumbbells but work slightly different than a bench press. With a bench press a person pushes their arms up and over their head. An incline fly has the person start with their arms at their sides and then slowly lift the arms up in a way that the dumbbells will come closer together at the peak of the lift. People have been known to get better results for this exercise by tightening their upper chest muscles while the dumbbells come together and then releasing them while lowering their arms back down.
