Not that many. The average male can bench 50kg. Not that many go to the gym anyway, and even of the ones that do go less than 25% can bench that I would say (over the age of 18 I am talking).
Another user:
But from my own experience I easily attained a 200 pound benchpress.
I was about 18,almost 19 when I did that and I started lifting when I was 18.
I didn't train seriously at all and ate crappy food and was even inactive for some
periods playing Video Games.
I didn't do squats or deadlifts,just some Martial Arts to work the legs.
I dont think a 200 pound bench is that rare,I barely had to do any serious work at
the gym or nutrition-wise to attain it.
And my starting bench was 175,I think there is some variation of what a normal man can bench.
But it can depend on a persons body type as well,a mesomorph or an endomorph can attain a 200 pound benchpress easier than an ectomorph.

∙ 15y agoIn high school in the 80's it was 1/50 guys -- and that was only the guys that lifted weights every day. It's probably less than 0.5% of the general male population. Many are old, young, fat, skinny, diseased, or totally out of shape. It's a silly exercise anyway, why guys want to build up their bosom is something that has never been understood.

∙ 14y agoI have come to the conclusion that no real study has been done on the subject however from the research I've done on my own I have found that regardless of body weight orpower-lifters only approx 10-15 percent can bench 300 or more. I know it sounds low considering power-lifters can be in the 400-1000 pound range but there are not a lot of power-lifters out there. Hope this helps

∙ 14y agoOne has to remember that a typical man who does not train with weights can not even bench press his own weight. I've been going to gym's all my life and the number of people in each gym who bench press 300+ pounds regularly I can count on my fingers. Of course this excludes professional athlete's but even in pro sports that require a lot of raw power like NFL there are a number of athlete's who can't bench this much (just look at the combine numbers for some of the WR's & CB's). Therefore, I'd guess no more than 15%

∙ 12y agoDoes it matter? Any guy can bench 300 pounds if they just keep going on with their strength training and going to the gym regularly. Oh, not to mention if they're eating right. And it also depends on their height too.

How much can a freshman bench press?
that all depends on your bady structure build and how often and how much you exersice but do not push yourself over your own limit... I would say for a guy 80-150lbs and girl 40-120 I agree somewhat with the above answer, but 120 for a freshman girl is ALOT. Any woman who can legitamately bench press that, regardless of her age, has my wicked respect. I know some guys who, as freshmen, could bench press 345 pounds, while weighing 240. But others I knew bench pressed only the bar, so i agree there is a wide range of capability. I would say that a very impressive bench press for a freshman male is 200 pounds and up. For a girl, 90 pounds and up is similiarly impressive. Boy, the above poster sure has some high expectations in the bench press..... >.<

What is the most a chimpanzee bench press?
A healthy man can bench his own weight, the average being around 185 lbs. A gorilla, highland silverback, the biggest of the gorillas, is said to be between 12 and 20 times stronger than a man. Just multiply 185 by those figures and it will give a ball park figure of what a gorilla can do if taught to bench press. On the animal channel, it stated that a large male silverback gorilla has the strength to press over 4600 pounds.
