My lifts for 3×5 are S:132.5KG, B:92 kg, P:58 kg and D:140kg (1×5 and I’ve struggled with type on this which is why it is low). I’ve bought my BW as much as 215 lbs at 6′ 2″. I’m conscious I am nonetheless ‘underweight’ however transferring in the appropriate route.
Concerning the deadlift, this has by no means been an issue earlier than having bought to 190kg+ for units of 5 on it once I was a bit youthful so it is not a motivational problem. Only a very minor again tweak and struggling to not simply ‘really feel all of it in my decrease again’.

Oh, and simply in case… The First Three Questions
Maybach
Your body weight does not appear inappropriately gentle for the weights you’re lifting. You’re overthinking this. The treatment for the “stomach” is to get your lifts up.
The one factor that stands out is the comparatively low deadlift. You do not want to be valuable about deadlift type. I am unsure the place the concept that a not quite perfect deadlift will cripple you got here from. “Feeling it in your decrease again” is just not a bit of related information. You may really feel it in your decrease again in the event you do every little thing proper. You won’t in the event you do every little thing flawed. The necessary factor is that you’re volitionally extending your again, not that it’s in excellent extension all through the set. Like I mentioned, you’re overthinking this.
