Not really understanding Needsize's 5x5 routine

[Backlash]

I gotta question for ya needsize, probably not worthing starting another thread on this. I hit a plateau on my incline bb press (my main chest move) at 175 for 5x5. So I started doing 5x3 but I feel like I'm about to plateau there after just 3 more workouts (at 190). Should I go back to 175 and try that for 5x5 again or just switch to regular bench and do 5x5 with 185 or something (my flat bench 1RM is 245)? Thanks!

i would say go back to 5x5 on the weight you left it at, 175lbs. If that doesnt work, you could try flat for a bit, the change would help and you'd be stronger on it too

MsBeverlyHills, I never noticed that I was doing them 3x weekly, but it is working, they are already the biggest they've been, which doesnt say much, but I'll do anything to get them up to par
