First of all, those aren’t standard floor push ups the guy is doing in the video. But no amount of any form of push ups is going to make a visible difference in muscle gain. That all goes to the bench press and free weights. Push ups are great because they make you feel better and stimulate your body, but they don’t visibly add muscle.
i do pushups as warm up and then go to bench press. Never had a shoulder problem since. I always start warmup with resistance bands pullaparts. Very healthy and the pump is amazing afterwards.
I used to do pushups and they were pretty good. the problemi have is that they are more difficult to overload then bench. Mainly though, bench is just more fun.
i do push ups and i can bench press more than my weight without doing bench press if i do only bench press i cant upgrade my push ups so push ups are much better
First off: Fellow long-hair lad here. I like your style, Asian dude 🤙 (Albeit, my hair is damn near 4ft!) Second: Those black shorts (during bench portion) are awesome! What brand?

Push ups is the only way that my body do because I don't have to go gym or buy products to perform it's more easy to do
The real answer is: yes
I do both🦾
Prefer Incline and Dips vs Flat Bench in the gym, but Push-Ups are invaluable bc you can do anytime/ anywhere.
When I stop doing push-ups and started doing bench press all of a sudden now I have shoulder pain
i do both

I enjoyed bench presses for 20+yrs with no problems, But for the last 10yrs I've preferred doing only push-ups & dips for my pushing exercises.
Push up gains translate directly to bench press. Cant say the same for the other way around from my own experience
Push ups
Weighted pushups are insane
So which one is better push-ups or bench press what’s the answer?
Incorporate both. Weights for the gym, push ups for an unwind before bed.
I used to do pushups and they were pretty good. the problemi have is that they are more difficult to overload then bench. Mainly though, bench is just more fun.
Unfortunately I only do good pushups on my knuckles. I think my wrists are too messed up to do any other variation comfortably
Push ups are free and there are a lot of variants.
