I've put on literally 45 pounds on bench in the past week. I'm up to 260 1RM now. The only downside to this is I don't think I'm putting on too much muscle mass...i've gained 15 pounds but most of it is prolly fat/creatine water.

if you've gained 45lbs on bench and 15lbs body weight in one week, i think that you were doing something wrong before and just werent seeing any gains
i honestly dont think its your routine that got you those gains

If your maxing out 3 days a week on the same excercise, youre gonna stall fast.

I'm guilty of that sh*t too, waiting for somebody to powder my nuts cuz I did 20 reps of whatever the **** on the bench. Big f*king deal. It is all relative." G Diesel

wait...i'll stall if i max out like this? it's not really "maxing out" since i'm pretty tired by the time I get to teh top of my pyramid. I meant I go up 5 pounds a workout/week.

A better pyramid would stop at 3 reps. Working to a max lift is pretty stresful on your body. Look into 3x3 programs on deepsquatter.com.

ha ha ha, horse testosterone....
BEhave, it sounds like you really know what you're talking about...
However, you might not want to max three times a week. Bad for the joints, stressful for the muscles to the point where you could plateau very quickly.
