The first thing I thought of was form, but I've checked and rechecked that. It's fine.
What would you do, if one of the core lifts in your routine was stalling, and none of the others was?
In my case, it's the bench. OHP, squats, deads and rows are fine - all progressing every time, or nearly every time. I heard it was meant to be OHP that would do this to me, lol...
Should I add in some supporting exercises, like dips? Just do more bench? Help!

sounds like a strength issue posted in the wrong forum
post a vid of you benching (preferably a working set) filmed from the sideYeah, I thought the other forum was more for beginners, as well as BBers. Like it says in the subtitle: "A forum for everything related to training, Those new to bodybuilding and weight training." But sure, I am trying to train for strength, lol.
Mostly, that seems to be working. Just have NFI why bench would be lagging, and continuing to lag, relative to the other lifts.
It's from the beginners thread on these forums. Has bench, squat, dl, db row and ohp. That's it, just increasing when doable, 3 x 8-10 reps for everything (I went with 8).what program are you doing?
If you arent already dipping then you should be. I cant think of anything better for building big triceps. And big triceps = big bench.
Dips are the "upper body squat"
oi niggs,
do dips (upright dips - more tricep) hit all 3 heads of tricep? I know pressing doesn't hit all 3 and leaves long head out
If you have a significant amount of weight hanging between your legs then The question of angle becomes moot.
srs? I mean i know squats hit most of the lower body, actually just about all of it not 100% sure?
But dips will hit chest/tricep/shoulder?
