Sup guys, i've been wondering how often you guys increase your bench weight, i read the sticky, and it said that you should atleast try to add 2.5lb's to your bench each week so your making gains, which is hard for me because the smallest plates are gym has is 2.5 so the smallest amount of weight i can add is 2.5lb's to each side, so i shoot for 5lb's every 2 weeks. But my question is how many of you actually increase and notice gains on your bench each week. Right now i'm bulking and i usually hit bench for 4 sets with 6-8 reps per set increasing the weight each set as i go, but i must say when not cycling i maybe notice i only am able to add 5lbs to my total weight every 3 - 4 weeks. So my question is if you do add say 2.5lb's to your bench each week or every 2nd week, how many reps are you able to do with the new weight? Also wondering if this pyramid style lifting is what most you use when bulking, such as adding weight each set, or should my heaviest lifts be set 2 and 3 and then start to take maybe 5-10lbs off for my last set so i can get atleast 6 reps in. Because right now my 4th and final set is the heaviest which i'm not exactly sure is a proper technique for bulking.
