It sounds like an okay start, I am not sure if your a guy or a girl. If your a guy I would say increase your weight to muscle standard, because you want to be strong and your burning a lot of fat to quickly. If your a girl. Your squats are excellent, but be careful. Girls have a higher rate of hurting themselves in squats. Also for either sex make sure your getting a little more protein then usual it will help you repair muscles that are sore.

For bodybuilding, the amount of weight you can lift means absolutely nothing.
Size, symmetry and low bodyfat % is everything. Get super wide shoulders and lats, a tiny waist, super huge biceps, forearms and quads and calves. And you’ll have a good start. If you’ll start out with gaining a low bodyfat %, you’ll be able to see the mass in the muscles as they grow.
To gain in size requires a much different program than gaining in strength.
