So I'm not the strongest fellow but I've always had a problem doing push ups.

I could probably do anything but push ups just suck dick for me.

So when I was working out my friends told me to work on my triceps.
When I started, I was famished, I could barely do any of the exercises that involved the muscles.

Would this be something that has heavily contributed to my failure to do pushups?

partially
push ups is a great exercise that will work out large group of muscles
i generally like and prefer to do exercises with my own body weight: push ups, chin ups, dips, crunches, squats without any addition weight until i can't get up anymore
generally it makes me feel better than doing weights
but yeah, triceps is one of major muscles involved in push up

Pushups are a compound lift, and triceps are used in it and you need to strengthen them in order to get better at doing pushups.

Triceps primarily access the chest, triceps, and shoulders. They also activate the core. Now depending on you width, you can change them to use more triceps, or more chest.

If you want to be a push up monster - go p90x. If you want pure power over muscular endurance, lift heavy, and keep the reps low.

If you want to no longer be black, bleach your skin.
