Is slingshot good for bench press?

What’s the point of benching with a slingshot?
Essentially, it’s just a wide elastic band. Arms go through loops at either end and the band connecting them stretches across the chest. In this way, when bench pressing, the Sling Shot provides a springy boost right when the bar is at its lowest.
Does the slingshot push up work?
Works! Very impressed with this purchase. I have no chest muscles and seriously unable to do a push up. I bought this item to help with build up muscle so I can work up to cranking out push ups and happy to say it’s doing exactly what I got it for.
Why do banded bench press?
Using bands for bench press help add a form of resistance that accommodates the strength curve. In other words, the bands act as an external loading tool that forces you to produce more force in ranges of motion that otherwise wouldn’t require you to ‘push’ as hard as possible.

How many assisted push-ups should I do?
There is no limit to how many push-ups one can do in a day. Many people do more than 300 push-ups a day. But for an average person, even 50 to 100 push-ups should be enough to maintain a good upper body, provided it is done properly. You can start with 20 push-ups, but do not stick to this number.
