How much can you increase your bench with push ups?
Obviously it doesnt help if you can bench 3 plates already. But will pushups help me progress if I cant even bench 2 plates?

Also push up roll thread. Last two digits familia.

Maybe, but not really. Pushups are more of an endurance exercise, really.

Estimates show it translates to approximately 60-70% of your bodyweight but I've never found myself or heard from others that it translated to bench very well. I don't think it will hurt but if you want to have a higher bench you should just bench more and do other lower-volume accessories like weighted dips and incline DB press or whatever.

Weighted pushups are a closed chain exercise, so they're slightly better for you than bench. It's just that they're a bitch to make weighted, so people avoid them.

You should be doing weighted pushes as an accessory, just to prevent winged scapula.

If you progress them properly, they can be great assistance:

- vary hand positions
- vary body angle
- use resistance bands (easier than adding weight)
