Barbell Barbell side press vs Kettlebell bent press

[conor78]

I haven’t used either lift in any systematic fashion as I have been using PTTP with a MP in the past.
Has anyone trained both lifts and if so any thoughts on both of them in terms of learning curve, results?
I have D Whitley book on the BP and obviously have PTPP but next month I want to tackle one of these lifts.

I would personally recommend the bench press or the floor press, or the side press (in that order). Bent press imho needs more total reps - Saxon brothers did around 30 reps per session, daily.
