End of linear progression

[AD1985]

6 foot 2 inches 176 pounds, 38 years old. Started lifting six years ago, paused three years ago due to work plus starting a business. One year ago I restarted and got to roughly my old maxes or a little bit better:

Dumbbell incline press: 67 lbs x 8, RPE 8 or 9.

Trap bar Rows: 87 kg x 8, RPE 9.5

Shrugs 144.5 kg x 10, RPE 8.

Belt squats. 71.25 kg x 8, RPE 8

Belt squats are not currently plateauing because I started them late due to adding equipment late. DB incline press is plateued. Rows, I might be able to squeeze out another kg or two before they become the same. Shrugs were easiest to progress but now look to finally be leveling off

I also do accessory work (OH extensions, curls, lat raises).

Tried uping calories. Gaining 1 lb per week steady but results don't increase. I'm thinking to actually slow it down.

Goal is to do 100 lb dumbbell press for reps. Rest of body proportional. Maybe ending weight 195 lbs

joined in 2007, but started lifting 6 years ago. Man. Oh, wait, this is Thailand. Man?

Jokes aside, a pound weekly is not a muscle gain. There might be two ounces of muscle, but rest of it is local gravity anomaly.

Classically if you already tried a reset and hit plateau then there are early intermediate programs to follow like Madcow. Maybe you can look at a later intermediate like Candito 6 week. (That includes a comp taper so you'll probably run it in 5 week cycles not 6). Look it up here
