@lucyt25 a proper technique pushup is around 2/3 of your bodyweight
what you are saying does not add up. A person who does 10 pushups should be able to bench 35 even for a smaller number of reps than pushups
If you can do 10 pushup in a row
a) you are cheating with your pushups
b) your bench form is very poor and ineffective
c) both
I would recommend doing slow pushups with stiff body and full range of motion each rep. dont go for number targets. Just do 3 sets with good effort. Since i suspect you have form issues I would recommend going to failure on each set (i.e. stopping only when you cannot move your body anymore)
I think pushups are actually better for you until you build more foundational strenght. Pushups are very safe and stable. You can push hard and learn your limits.
A beginner should never try their limits on bench because
1) bench starts from a strong position, followed by a negative, then the hardest part where you have reverse any momentum. You can easily get under a weight you cannot lift
2) bench actually requies considerable stability on your shoulder, in order to execute with good form
If you want to bench press, I would recommend doing dumbbel presses or pushups to improve strenght
at the same time you can just lift the empty bar on the bench and record yourself to study your form
Since this is bodyweight subreddit, I should also stress that bodyweight only is a great way to train until you hit certain limits. its difficult to simulate heavy lifts like bench, squat, deadlift with bodyweight only; however you are far far away from that place where you lose out on gains due to intensity
