strykn what do you bench now? what is/was your max?
I only increase bench when I bench twice a week with one day being on 2-3 rep HEAVY. and the other day including incline. like strykn I think incline helps a lot too. i think it helps with my drive from the bottom.
If I bench twice a week I can climb up to 285-295ish and slowly keep climbing. If I stop focussing on it and bench once a week it drops back to about 245 and then it takes like 3 months to get back up again.
Im determined to hit 3 plates this spring. Based on how things are going, maybe within 6 weeks.
Did you guys bother to 'load' on your creatine? (20g a day as per label)
Picked up a 1000g container but I researched and studies say it's not necessary.
i find that adding 3board bench on the smith machine has really increased my bench press as well. Well i guess im not lifting as much as you guys but not too sure how well the 3board bench helps when ur aiming for 3+ plates. Its def helped with my explosiveness near the top

I found that chains, bands, and boards help me get to and past the 3plate bench.

I think your bench max can actually be calculated based on your frame/weight... I've never done it myself though... god damn, so many jacked mofos here.. I rarely see anyone at my gyms even doing over 2 plates... i see the occasional badass doin 3 but thats pretty much it
There are no principles, there are only events. There is no good and bad, there are only circumstances. The superior espouses events and circumstances in order to guide them.
I was doing rows with the Barbell between the legs and 5 plates on the end of it. Was going pretty hard and hit my sternum lol. Now it's bruised. Row like a boss.
