    Unhappy How to improve my bench press?

    Hi guys, first of all, thank you for reading and helping me guys. So, I've been working out seriously around one and half years, and my body has changed so much. I am now much bigger than I was before, and people think that I do barbell bench press really heavy (because my chest is really big). But I actually max out only at 180 lbs ! (I am 5'11 and BW is 160 lbs) I got stuck at 180 lbs for like a year, and I can't go up. I have done many researches about how to improve the barbell bench press, and they didn't work for me. I don't know if it's because of my body or because of the way I train. For dumbbell press, I can do 70 lbs for 5 reps and max out at 80 lbs for 2 or maybe 3 reps, but for barbell press..... I am really sad now guys, is there still any way that I can improve my barbell bench press ? Thanks a lots guys
