No it is not although it works almost the same muscles. Bench press is when you are on the bench laying on your back and lifting the weight. Chest press is when you sit on the bench and push the weight forward while your arms are parallel to your chest at a 90 degree angle from your elbows.

How often should you bench press in one week?
When it comes to training the larger muscle groups like the chest, back, and legs, it is good to work them out with great intensity during a workout, and then provide them with plenty of rest. Some people claim that to bench press 3 times per week is not too much, but training them that frequently leaves them sore and diminished each time you rework them. You will overtrain doing this. Personally, i work chest and bench press at least once per week, but no more than twice per week, with usually 5-6 days in between chest sessions. That way, your chest is fresh and ready to grow each and every time. Bench pressing once per week has helped me to achieve a 400 pound bench press at 200 pounds bodyweight, so once per week training can be very effective...-the westside barbell programme advocates one day of heavy bench press and one of dynamic effort or explosive bench press at around 50-60% of your 1rm.

How do you get a better bench press?
In order to increase bench press you must not do it more than every 2-3 days because your muscles need time to rest you can add weight to your bench press every 2 weeks with 5-10 pounds I usually bench press every 4 days and the that after my bench I like to work my triceps because triceps have a big impact on bench press also have you tried other workouts on your bench day like dumbbell press, dumbbells fly or incline and decline bench press you could also gain more muscle which could help you with the weight eat high protein foods such as chicken and lean steak also get lots of rest
Is it bad to bench press every day?
if You use less than 60% of your 1 rep max it's ok, otherwise you should only every oyther day if you're going to be bench pressing in order to get stronger or bigger, then no, do not bench press every day. If you are a woman or a man who wants to lift like a woman or look like a woman, then feel free to. Bench press is a man's lift. A big lift. A growing lift. You should bench press once per week. maybe twice. but go for big weight each time. Bench press is not cardio. So stay away from 60% max crap and stay strong.
