A few things. Squatting that deep is good but not necessary, going to parallel is usually all you need. Also if you’re having trouble hitting higher weight, try hip press (4x20 or something high volume). Another thing, I’m not sure what routine you’re doing but make sure you’re doing deadlifts and overhead press, they’re essential for overall strength. If you can hit 1/2/3/4 (1 plate OHP, 2 plate bench, 3 plate squat, 4 plate deadlift) you’re as good as you need to be strength-wise. Also, some really important exercises for aesthetics and strength are pull-ups, dips, farmers walks and forearm curls, shrugs, curls and tricep extensions. If you do all of those, you should be good.

Last thing, invest in protein powder (MyProtein is a great brand imo), and creatine monohydrate for when you’re bulking. Hope this helps and god speed on your journey
