I wouldn't normally respond with an anecdote, but I see you haven't had a response in several days. I have not tried either, but I have known 2 people that did smolov. Their experience was a good increase in bench, I think it was 20 and 25lbs.

Having said that, I don't know what level of training you're at, but I've had good success with the Texas Method. I went from 220 x 4 to 265 x 2 over the course of a couple months.

Here's on article if you're interested:
