The amount of weight one is able to bench press can vary greatly depending on the individual's body frame and muscle mass. An individual that is thinner, will most likely not be able to start a weight lifting program and expect to life greater than 100 pounds. Talking with your primary care doctor would be helpful in laying the foundation of a good exercise program, especially for teenagers, as they are not finishing developing.
easy
If your strong 50 lbs.
Doesn't matter, you do what you can do and that's the end of it.
I am 5'6 and I bench max out at 95. I have never worked out this much, just go slow and steady and you'll get there.
a 16 year old should be lifting in his bench press around 150 and 200 pounds, if you bench within these numbers than your in pretty good shape. But if were talking about squating it should be around 200 threw 250 pounds , but most 16 year olds barely squat as much as bench.
Three fifty should be pretty easy for a 15 year old male. Pump it up buddy and keep on lifting!
If your in good shape you should be able to bench you weight, but keep in mind that is a 15 year old that is in shape.As far as arm curls go, I would say 40lbs.
i think that he should start off with 100 lbs but in the end, he should be able to bench 200. some where near his weight.
first of all you cannot bench 308 stop lying to yourself and for your answer 135 or above
Most 5' 12 year old's should be able to bench a little less then there body weight. There muscles and form would be highly underdeveloped. This is also only true if the child is of healthy weight.
It is not recommend for a 12-year-olds to perform weightlifting, because it will not increase/enlarge their muscle. It MAY gain some strength, but not very significant. He/she should wait until he/she becomes 16. ..... It is all depends on that 12-year-old's strength and mostly on willpower. That child should start at 1 lbs and then progress 2, 3, 4 to 5 lbs or more.
Because of the skeletal immaturity of an 11-year-old, it is not advisable that they train with weights. My recommendation is to play regular sports to develop all-around fitness, plus co-ordination, and wait until you are sixteen (or at least 15).
