How much do professional football players bench press?

Answer 1

In the NFL combine wide receivers are required to do a max rep set on the bench at 225lbs. The top performers in the 2010 combine put up in the area of 18-20 reps. For a max bench this equates to something around 300-315 for a max weight. This is of course not exact however that's a ballpark for you at least.

Answer 2

It all depends on the position they play and whether you are talking NFL or college. I would say a good average is between 1.5 and 2.5 times their body weight. so for a guy who weighs 200lbs, he would probably squat between 300lbs-500lbs. or you could just say 2x their body weight to make it easy.

Answer 3

well i go to a high school in Columbia Missouri and the top five benches on my team is 340, 320, 315, 305, and 305 and only one is a lineman and another is a receiver that is going to Mizzou next year

The linemen who achieve 30+ reps on the Draft bench press are able to bench 500- 600lbs.

It all depends on the position and the age of the player. For eaxample, a highshool senior is going to lift much more than lets say an incomming freshman.
