Anecdotally I have noticed the same thing on the few occasions I reached 220-230lbs bodyweight, bending over and picking up the bar was considerably more of a struggle than when I'm my usual 190-200lbs.
I don't think the ab-size is a major factor here, unfortunately  Sorry bro, I don't mean anything bad with this but I think it's a bodyfat issue. |
No doubt my weight could be a factor. I'm not sloppy fat, but I'm not a lean dude either. Thanks for the insight.

I am not a powerlifter nor am I a bodybuilder. I just want to be big and strong.
