I used to do it but I wasn't consistent.

Now i'm full hypertrophy oriented with 3-4set of 8-12reps but i'm not progressing and that pissed me off

Like i'm stuck with 20kg dumbell press since 4 fucking months

what should I do ? (I'm on a PPLx2)

just do hypertrophy
 
do only 2 sets to failure and focus on squezing the muscle and do reps slowly aswell
 
focus more on excentric phase too

Ppl seems like a lot of isolation, are you a beginner?

Im intermediate/ advanced and my push routine at home is 3x handstand pushups
3x weighted dips 3x weighted elevated push ups , twice a week to failure every set.

So what you want to do is low volume high intensity workout , i believe what you re doing wrong is you re damaging the muscle , and by the time you workout again the muscle healed those tears but did not add muscle on top, thus you re stuck on the same level.

Though i dont suggest 2 sets only because you get the most at 3 .

2 sets to warm up and 1 set to complete failure

try varying your exercise selection

maybe try doing seated overhead press in the Smith machine for a bit
