At least your body weight from 8-12 reps. Granted, this is not what the average adult male actually DOES bench press. Of course, bench pressing isn't much in the grand scheme of things. Try focusing on squatting, 'cause it works more muscles and makes you stronger and more ready for life. I can currently bench 1.1x my bodyweight for 12-14 reps, and 2x my bodyweight for 2 extremely painful reps. Squatting is another story. 1.5x my bodyweight from 12-15 reps, and 3x my bodyweight for 1-3 reps. I weigh 180 pounds, with about 8-12 % body fat if you're wanting a reference to yourself.
