i know what u mean by maintaining the weight when u stall.. if u can search for madcow's site, enter your details on your max lifts in the excel file and u'll see that the increase percentage for bench and OHPs are very low.. that their increment can be 2lbs per workout.. so if u increase 5lbs...

i hear ya on the switching up of exercises.. i also do incorporate assistance lifts.. work on weaker muscles and lagging parts.. i've been doing moderate negatives to improve my bench, i've yet to try board presses.. gotta find my sticking point and make me a board too.. haha.. would look funny...
