How much a 140 lbs man is able to bench is dependent upon age, but at the peak of a man's strength, around 200lbs is an average-to-good bench. Stronger men who consistantly lift will increase this figure by about 50 lbs or more. 200% of a man's weight on bench is great (in this case, 280lbs.) Personally, I weigh 145 lbs and bench 260 lbs.

A healthy athletic male should be able to bench their own body wieght, however if he is tall with more of his body weight distributed to his skeletal system he might not be able to. Of course if he is of average height 5'10" (give or take an inch) and applies himself in the gym he may be able to bench upwards of 300lbs.
