Does a bodybuilder bench more than a calisthenic person?

The bench press is a classic workout and one of the “big 3.” It’s also a wonderful display of strength and a proving ground for lifters everywhere.

Bodybuilders are often seen to have non-functional strength. Whereas calisthenics is all about functional strength.
