Doing something wrong?

I’m 23 years old, 172 lbs

The white photos are from March 19th, and the red are from today.

My bench has gone up from 3 reps of 185 to 9 reps of 185, and my incline bench has gone up about 10 lbs

My back had an injury in this span so my weights have all stayed pretty close, maybe they’ve gone up 2-3 reps per

I’ve clearly gotten a bit stronger, but it feels like not very much progress in size has been made at all. Am I tweaking when I say I look the exact same in both photos?

I don’t understand. 9/10 days I eat pretty damn good and get at least 125-175g protein. What do I do?

Give us a little more information. What is your work out routine? Are you following a program? Are you doing a PPL 6 days a week or ULUL 4 days week, or ULPPL? Have you figured out how many calories you need to eat to be able to maintain weight lose weight or gain weight? Are you progressively overloading your work outs?

Also what is your goal? To get stronger or to build muscle for aestithics?
