Should I be heavier?

bw 150 - 420/280/220 for main lifts

That sounds pretty impressive for a newbie lifter of 1 1/2 years (counting corona maintenance) but I want more. It feels like I just don't have enough sheer muscle mass to move more weight and what muscle mass I have is already at my genetic max for strength. It's like a mental barrier

Prolly just stupid plateau fatalism and broscience. Anyone got some real facts to get my through bench day tomorrow?

Uhh, which one's which? Why the huge discrepancy?

You should get your squat up to your deadlift, and your bench up to 315, then add 5 lbs of muscle.

You need to change up your routine. Do you do power cleans? Military press? Sprint? Do you train wrist curls and extensions, and pronation, suppination? You should do asymmetric deadlifts, 'shovel lifts', rack pulls, and an exercise where you hold the barbell just off the ground in deadlift position for an extended period of time, say 2 minutes- using 95 lbs to start out with if you lack endurance. Once a week do the Supersquat method - 20 reps 1 set, heavy as fuck. Isometrics are important as well. You do rotator cuff work? Face pulls? Pull ups? Reverse pseudo-planche? Ab wheel? Cable wood choppers? Do you do throws (sandbag, keg)? Long distance carries (shoulder carry, yoke stand, vest, farmer's carry, one or more of)? The long distances carries and asymmetric lifts are a big one.

150 is underweight. pump up to 200lbs at least. dunno how tall you are but even if you're 5' 8" i'd still shoot for 225 or higher. you've also got a massive discrepancy between what im assuming is your deadlift and squat. its not unusual for a 40 or so lbs difference but 140lbs is just ridiculous. either your form is bad or you're not trying hard enough on it and need to gain weight

I personally get more of a pump from lifting heavier weights, so I just cut it to 5 reps (3 sets) so I can lift 2x heavier weights.

For you, it's about comparing yourself to yourself; not about someone who has been lifting for 3 years straight and tries to poke fun out of a sense of insecurity.
