..My bench has progressed best when I have a secondary bench day focused on higher volume and reps. Right now my goal is to do a few waves of OHP to built that up to an acceptable number again, then transition that to a more bench-specific movement such as close grip incline bench. I pretty much do my few basic prescribed sets of OHP then go to wide grip bench which has been slowly increasing weight with 25-30 rep sets..
