I don't know much about your body composition but at 5'10" you really shouldn't be above 200 for your long-term health. You're better off slimming down than focusing on strength.

100% agree.

I'm 5'11 185 right now and can bench around 290, working on getting back to 300 in the next month or so.
And I'm also training for a marathon in November. Its a tough balance for certain but I've benched 300 and ran a 3:20 marathon in the same 6-8 month time period back in 2018 so hope I can do it again except in the same month this time. (5 years older as well ugh)

Yeah, 215-225 isn’t where I want to be but where I’ve seemed to settle without serious changes to diet.
And good luck!
