personaly i think the bench is easier, i have more of a challange doing push ups with the push up stands so ur arms are slighty off the floor which allows ur chest to be streched more, but the question is....

if i do 25 x 4 push ups or a a good weight on the bench, say 12 x 4 which will make u more cut in defination,??

Your diet will make you more cut. Pushups will do nothing but burn calories(not necessarily a bad thing if fat loss is your goal), but will do little to develope your chest.
