I'm trying to push myself down this chart:
You're reminding me to get back into bouldering. I think I was climbing at around V4-V5 before the pandemic hit and I lost the habit of going.

same here except that I lost it in the middle of the pandemic after too many lockdowns.

Climbing or bouldering? I feel like I can climb more difficult routes than bouldering - at least according to the grade. But I also noticed it depends a lot on who set the route (since they grade it), what kind of route etc.
I am definitely more of an endurance than strength guy.

Just bouldering! And yes, the setter is important. Sometimes short setters will create routes that are very difficult for tall people, and vice versa. As a tall person myself, my strength / bodyweight ratio isn't so good, but there are routes I can absolutely cheese due to my arm span.
