Stuck at 20lb weights for bench press

Title pretty much says it all. Barry’s has been so great for me to gain upper body strength but now I’m stuck. Every time I go to pick up 25lb weights for the bench press they seem SO heavy and just untenable. I use the 25s for single arm rows and they are hard but good. Do I go for it or is there something else I can be doing to make the transition feel not so intense and impossible? The 20s do feel too easy at this point (I don’t get sore and can do a lot of them). Thanks for any insight!
