Thread of the title makes it seem like you are going to ask which is better =p.
Best way to increase your barbell is do more barbell with correct form.
I'd suggest dips or board presses. Also make sure you work your front delts and triceps as well because they factor in when it comes to bench press.

this is good advice, I started doing body weight dips recently until failure x3 sets after my workouts and my bench press and tricep strength has gone up considerably.
