How does work your progressive overload? How often do you do that? If you hit a weight that you can't lift anymore, what is your strategy?

>>76329963 (OP)
For example I'll start at 145 2x10 lb on bench then go 165 x6x2 then go one 180x5 then 195 x4 then 210x5 ect 15lb increments and i slowly drop the eys from 5 to 4 to 3 and stop a 2.
By the time I'm done lifting I've probably done anywhere between 50-80 reps.

Let me clarify also once past 165 all weights are done in one set.

Brother, You need to start with the highest weight FIRST. This is not how warmups work.

I will go up 5 or 10 lbs any time i stop getting doms. If the additional weight feels awkward i go back down and focus harder on eccentric and concentric overload while trying to up my reps.

Im about to get more into number now im down cutting. Thinking what if i added 2.5 lbs every single week.

Obviously this is a joke

I do
60% of my working load 1x6
80% of my working load 1x6
100% of my working load 3x8~12
80% of my working load 1xfailure

When my working load ever hits 12 reps I increase weight the next session, usually by 5lbs

wtf

>>76329963 (OP)
I'm cutting and have been stuck at a weight for weeks
It seems like I hit my limit unless I start eating more so now every time I go to the gym i just know I'll be failing that same last rep every single fucking time and there's nothing I can do about it
