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.
it really depends on the strength of the kid, but on average its between 60lbs. to 80 lbs.
they say you should be able to bench your own weight but if you have been training for awhile your muscles will let you bench a lot more than your weight.
it will depend on what kind of bench it is :P
easy
For you, maybe 30 at the most if your really lucky.Don't listen to other people because they say im 12 and can bench 120, there lying, its easy to do. THey can't even bench 20 for that matter.
It depends on how strong you are pick a set weight that isn't too hard and not too easy just enogh.
yes
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.
If your strong 50 lbs.
Doesn't matter, you do what you can do and that's the end of it.
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.
