Hey fit how much do you bench?

i wonder where I should be at as a beginner

o shit waddup

When I started I struggled with the bar, never touched a weight as a 5' 6 125lb turbo dyle. 4 months later I'm 145 (>still 5'6) and yesterday I did 135 5x5. Not sure what my max is, maybe like 170ish?

Depends on your age. The average male bench press is apparently around 135lbs for 1 rep max, which is pretty sad when you think about it.

I know I started (at 14) with the bar and two 10lb weights on each time (so 55lbs) for like 7-8 reps.

At 20 when I actually lifted and bulked for the first time my bench went up to 250-260lb max with a bodyweight of around 200.

At 22 after not lifting for a long ass time I was repping out 135lbs for 10 reps, with a 1 rep max of around 180-190lbs.

As a beginner I would (young adult male) I would expect likely a bench press of around 135lbs for reps of at least 5. If your skeletor though with really low bodyweight probably like 65-85lbs for reps I guess.

sorry meant I started with 65lbs, I fail at math.

If you cant bench 40kg you eshould worry. Anything above thhat is acceptable for a beginner.

throw on 315 and fucking rep that shit

don't be a pussy. you can do it. you'll be hyped up on adrenaline and if you don't warm up first your muscles won't know what's going on. They'll think your good for 405 and 10 reps of 315. I promise bro, don't be a faggot

I started at 40kg I was skeleton

175 flat for reps (could probably do more, but not gonna risk it without a spotter.)
145 incline for reps

33, weigh 200 lbs (been cutting from around 300, so hard to get stronger while doing so.)

Completely ignored flat bench for the past year, so hoping i can catch up pretty quick once i get used to the motion.

72.5 kg 5x5, started with 35 two months ago, feels pretty good desu

245 but I started in January

One month in 30kg as femanon (novice standart will be about 40 kg)

On shit whaddup

Typical bench day is 195 3x12

Got bored last time and decided to do 225 3x5

I have long arms, don't judge

143 lbs/ 65 kg ; (((
and im built im just weak at bench press

how much base weight does the smith machine have?

Broke new record today, 5x185lb. 170lbs 6'0. Hopefully within the next 6 to 9 months I can get to 2pl8s.

>been lifting for more than a year
>bench press still 140lbs x5

Hit a PR last thursday of 165x8 (est 200 1RM since my butt came up on the last one) @ 134 lb 5'8". Am I going to m8k it?
