It's easier with the barbell on the catch bars. Here's my point of view. If I was to try this, I would put the catch bars LOW, like below my chest level. So when I get under it and get in position with my chest touching the bar, I'm squatted about 1/3 of the way down. When I press it, I'm front squatting up as fast as I can, then let the momentum press the bar up quick over my head. If I was to do this, it would be sooo much easier than having to squat down with the bar, then back up....Essentially, using the bars make push presses a HALF a movement.
BUT, since I have not, nor will I ever do them with the catch bar, I honestly won't have a fucking clue as to which is harder. All I can do is picture both ways in my head, and speculate!
