Chest exercises.

Is it just me or does anyone else find that the more they can bench, the harder they find it to string 40+ press ups?

Admittedly I have gained ~8kg since I last tried, but I am finding that the high weight/low rep benching has made me lose all my chest stamina.

Anyone else have any similar affects?

Not sure mate, although when I workout chest I do bench press (with dumbbells) immediately followed by 10 pressups for 3 sets. It hasn't really effected my pressups and I bench as heavy as I can, which is around 50kg.
