As for bench, same thing make sure you're eating. Try pulse reps (down to your chest, up 1/4, down to your chest, full way up = 1 rep). Also saw that you don't lift shoulders? Could be your crux, don't forget about them as they are quite important.

Hard to give advice over the net without seeing how you currently lift, somtimes just adjusting your form can up those numbers. Just make sure you're diligent in critiquing your lifts.
Height is 5 feet 9 inches. I don't have the best genes but for shoulders I do lol. I am always up to try something new so I'll start doing pulse sets and incorporating shoulders during arm day.

Show me someone who can do some decent weight with Bent Rows, and I can almost guarantee you that they will have a decent bench.

But for your bodyweight....those are some decent numbers so don't be too hard on yourself.
Food is tough and I know its one of my weak points. Meal prepping is a pain in the ###. I'm trying to do more calories and try to get 6 meals in a day.
