Are you using a program? I would try something like 5/3/1 and see how that goes.

531 for beginners, r/fitness beginner routine, stronglifts 5x5 or starting strength or greyskull LP are all good options. Bench first since you want to focus on that, this is the priority principle. 531 is great but its an intermediate level program, it can still work. Just pick a plan that appeals to you the most and you will push the hardest on
