I’m skeptic of the whole beginner, intermediate, etc. thing in weight lifting. If you lift / perform exercises correctly I don’t think it hardly matters
This.

i'd place u as a beginner with those stats tbh.
The amount of time u put in the gym doesnt make u a beginner or intermediate, its how good ur doing work and how heavy u push that makes u progress from a category to another.
As for PPL not being for beginner or intermediate lifters, its bullshit. Everyone has a kind of program that will work better for them.
just try it out for 3 months and take progress pics.
Also, u should eat a bit more cuz at 160, ur like a fkn stick
Throwing in longer eccentric and iso holds with proper form might make your numbers smaller than a random bro just throwing weight around. Doesn't make you any less experienced.
With that being said though, experience does lead to higher numbers. There are just way too many variables with lifting to have such a black and white view on the matter.
