I posted on this study in my journal a couple of days ago. I think maybe it comes down to pushups being a fair proxy for body fat percentage rather than having to do with strength as such--and of course, low body fat percentage is going to correlate with less fatty liver or visceral fat, better so than bmi would.
My friend's kid, vegetarian at the time, was talking about how many body weight reps he could do of various exercises. There's a reason why gymnasts are extremely lean. Lean people can still have insulin resistance and type II etc. of course, but it's much less likely.
