How much should you be able to bench press?

Answer 1

you should be at least able to bench your own weight but if you can't then you are pretty weak my bench press is 100 pounds max at a body weight of 96 pounds but keep your self at a pace you can do you dont want to hurt youself.

Everyones bench press max is different. I weigh 130pounds, my 5 sets of 5 is with 130 pounds and my max is 170pounds.

30-40pounds above your 5 by 5 max is a pretty good guesstimate of your one rep max if you are around my weight.

i weigh 139 and can do 190
