Powerlifter stuck at a plateau before nationals
I'm prepping for nationals. Squat is okay but my deadlift is glued to 220kg. My bench is weak too. I sleep well, eat enough, but my CNS feels fried. I need something that will boost raw strength without adding water weight. Any real advice from fellow powerlifters who've broken through a plateau?

I was in a similar spot, stuck at a plateau for a long time. What helped me was focusing on a structured
adapted for powerlifting goals. I also paid attention to recovery with stretching and rest, which made a noticeable difference. Over several weeks my lifts started moving again, and overall performance felt more stable without unnecessary strain.
