Get fatter

Some people think it is cheating but I’ve found with plateaus in bench and OHP, that a few weeks on the smith machine, particularly on a slight incline for bench really helps me break plateaus.

Also might be worth banging out a handful of reps of 40s. Plateaus can be mental as much as physical.

Yeah a break is as good as a rest.

@Big_Dan_Campbell do some heavier reps. Say a 5 at 40, a 5 at 42.5. Do some flat bench with the bar if you can. It’ll make a huge difference.

Also get fatter

Any lads not using tempos weight training may as well forget it.

Do you wear a belt? 180kg is fair lifting

That’s over 200kg. 3 reps. No belt.
