For 99% of people here just push-ups will be much better than nothing, it's much harder to find a pull up bar than do push-ups. You won't get overdeveloped muscle just from push-ups.

A good exercise to pair with push ups is horizontal rows. They're easier than pull ups and don't require a pull up bar. I do them with a sturdy wooden broom handle between the back of 2 chairs.
you can also do them underneath an (office) desk, by holding on to the edge and pulling yourself up from the floor
Wow, thanks guys! You made my day with these easy tips.
