When compared to the overhead press, the bench press is the least functional of the two. In daily life, we press objects overhead from a standing position far more often than we press object off of our chests from our backs. However, because we are able to lift more weight and because it works the triceps and the deltoids, muscles groups we also utilize in the press, the bench press assists in improving our overall strength to maximize our potential going overhead.
