Seems like some days I can do a heck of a lot more then other days but it all ends up to that same weight which i am struggling with. Problem bringing the weight up on first rep and wasting energy with that motion. What should I do?

Since how long you've been at the current weight? Some days you can do more than others that's completely normal, but if it's been going on for weeks then you might need to switch it up.

Are you lifting the weight the same each time. Make sure you keep the width of your grip the same each time.
You say you loose a lot of energy on the first rep this is proberbly getting into position. Are you doing low reps. You could try lightening the weight and doing more reps so you can work on your form and keep it consistant.

Its been going on for about a month. Ever since I've been unloading on a supplement. What would be best to switch it up. One body part per day? Currently im doing chest first then finishing with triceps during the workout. It was working previously ill experiment a little.

Try some cable crossovers, switch to barbell if you've only been using dumbbells, change the rep scheme, dropsets, supersets, giant sets, etc.. it's shocking the muscles every once in a while.

This is a bit off topic but, how's your diet?

Have you tried any periodisation?

I don't know what the rest of your workout schedule is like but I'll try and give a brief example:

Let's say you are stuck at 50kg for 5 reps on the incline bench. Since you can do well over 80kgx5 on pulldowns/pullups and over 100kgx5 on the squat, we can assume that you have the ability to lift more on this exercise.

Week 1:Start the particular day you are doing chest (or if full body, everytime) with inclines and do, as a max effort, 30 kg for 5 reps. No more. Keep doing the other exercises but not to your full capacity. Save your strength.

Week 2:The same but up the weight to 35kg for 5 reps.

Week 3:Up the weight to 40kg for 5 reps

Week 4:Up the weight to 45kg for 5 reps

Week 5:This is where you'll know how well the cycle has worked (if it hasn't, perhaps your diet/rest need attention). Up the weight to 50kg for 5 reps.

Week 6:Up the weight to 52.5-55kg for 5 reps.

If the cycle keeps working, by all means keep adding the weight.

Best of luck!

Running out of energy or being stronger some days than others prolly has to do with sleep and diet. Try doing barbell instead of dumbbell that usually helps me. Change the grips and order of incline press in your workout like has been said.
