Why am I such a weak little bitch? My deadlift and squat has been going up 5lbs per lift session (three times a week - all of these exercises every time), but my OHP and bench are just fucked.
6'4, 197lbs, lifting seriously for two months after fucking around trying to figure stuff out for the first month.
Squat - 120 7 reps 4 sets
Dead - 135 8 reps 4 sets
Bench - 90 8 reps 4 sets
OHP - 60 6 reps 4 sets
Row - 95lbs 9 reps 4 sets
Curl - 60lbs 9 reps 4 sets

You are doing bench and the press way too often. It would be fine to do 20+ reps once a week but if you are doing it 3 times a week you are just making it difficult to lift heavy. Many reps for beginners is fine to work on form and build stabilizers. After a while though you should definitively lower the amount of reps you do a week. If you mostly care about the strength, doing less reps at a higher percentage of your max is better. Look into doing a 5x5 in the future.
