1. You have to have good reasons and go back to higher management for more time and extend your plan to reflect the delays. Change Request to agree new delivery date.
2. You could encourage flexible working. Sometimes I have had my team work lates with the view that when the project moves into testing that they can work shorter days and still be paid for a full days work.
3. You re-plan and take on more heads but this will not always work unless you have knowledgeable resources on tap (I have had this once where a developer was moved onto another project and I pulled him back on to assist). Time to get up to speed normally takes weeks.
