From my personal experience, I got stuck on my 225 bench for a long time..
Could not rep it proper 8 times.. (when I have 8x on a certain weight I move on).
Then I started an overtraining program by mike rashid, and added pause reps in to that.
As example when you train chest and you will bench flat, you bench 250x in 30 minutes 8 seconds rest max @ lightweight based on your own strenght, I used 60 kilos total because I can never fail 60 kilos (I did not have a spotter) Then your next excersize will be incline bench take 10 plates of 2.5kg on each side, do 10 reps and take 1 off both sides untill they are all gone, them bring em all back 1 by 1 (Pyramide sets) Then as last excersize do something to burn out like push ups, last man standing with 2 budds.
And watch how rip your chest is the next day, you will notice the workout the next day.
And also.. I find all those know it alls on youtube utterly worthless, some pieces of information is good, but put in the work and keep surprising your muscles, and push yourself to the limit every now and then.
E: When I started overtraining, I blased though 225 and got to 270 x5.
Then I got worn out by overtraining because I did it all the time, it takes alot of energy and motivation to keep that paste going.
You should start a youtube channel, tell us your new revolutionary techniques like Pyramide sets. Share your 30 minutes sets for one exercise. Personal favorite is surprising the muscle.
