You could actually build a good bit of mass with this with the right diet. The secret is going slow. When doing your pushups, try 30 seconds going down and 30 seconds coming up. Not a lot of fun, right? You'll work a lot of your muscles more than you could. While not as effective as weight training, you'll definitely be building functional strength. Make sure you do your pull-ups dead hang and palms out away from you, thats the best way to hit those muscles just right.
