    I've been doing SS Novice for about 2 months now and definitely noticed this! I've always found bench press the hardest as I'm somewhat lanky, but now with my squat and deadlift going up constantly it makes the weaker bench even more noticeable. This was the exact video I was looking for, thank you!
    One question: would you recommend incorporating the extra bench/press day before getting to a "reset"? Or only after hitting a reset? I'm still adding 5lbs per session to my bench, but can definitely feel it getting tougher on the last 3x5 set, and I think it's going to plateau soon. Or would doing the micro plates first make more sense if I hit a reset on my bench press? Currently 195# BW, squat 205#, deadlift 270#, bench 160#. Thank you!

    The .75lb plate may be helpful for the shoulder press, since that's usually the lift that increases the slowest, and for the older population to keep increasing the weight. I'm thinking 55% yes to 45% no. The 1.25 plates you have are good enough, in my opinion. However, I'm 31 whereas someone older could use them.

    Just to clarify, if I came in on Saturday to do a 5x5, am I just doing the one upper body lift that occurred that past Wednesday? Or, am I doing the whole thing? The latter just seems like overkill since I did a 3x5 the previous day (Friday). I could definitely use more Bench work & Press work, I wouldn’t mind doing those more to get additional practice in.
    Thanks for your videos, Grant!

    I like the idea of doing this, but would it not interfere with recovery?

    If they're adding a 4th day, they may as well move onto an upper lower split or something like that.

      They for sure could. Trying to change as few variables as possible on newer lifters if everything else is still moving. Also trying to give very actionable advice that lifters can try

    I have a 190-lbs Press and a 255-lbs Bench Press. I also Press 4x a week because I want to specialize in that. Not sure how to work in bench in with that schedule. Thoughts?

    Those Squat Forms are Terrible. Its a Good Morning Squat which is extremely dangerous to the lower back.

    My experience has shown the opposite. I went to benching once every 2 weeks and my weights started going up. Just doing a lift more frequently does not equal more gains. In fact if your bench or any lift stalls; its most likely due to not fully recovering between workouts.
