When I get stronger at my lifts like squats and deadlifts do I actually become stronger in real life, or am I just stronger at those specific lifts?

>Not doing farmer walks
Most movements of moving things like furniture uses the muscles from squats and deadlifts. Work on farmer walks to increase grip since it is the most important in real life situations

My gym is pretty small and there is no track or anything. Do I walk with weights on a treadmill?

Just pick the heaviest dbs and walk around the gym you fucking autist.

Work on your functional strength by doing bw exercises and stuff

Every new set of pl8s you add to your squat grants you an extra life.
If you are a strong man in the gym, are you a strong man in real life too?
if i get bigger in the gym to i get bigger in real life?

Both.
Unless you've already got a fairly impressive set of lifts, at which point it doesn't tend to help much.
Its useful, but strength is not directly translates irl.
Anything really heavy irl is big and could kill you if it fell on you, so youre not gonna go lifting shit just cos you can.
The most important carryovers are things like technique and conditioning so you dont get injured
