How much should a 14 year old bench?

[Falcon8334]

I am 14 years old, and can bench 140(6 to 8 reps)
is this average?

[Rndm]

above average, most 14yo can only bench the bar


what are your stats?

Don't worry about whether it's average or not. Just strive to improve.

There is no set amount that a 14 year old should bench. You can bench what you can bench, and that will depend on how much, how long, how hard you work out, as well as genetics, your diet and your routine. I'm assuming you're a beginner though, and that is pretty good. You've made it this far, now keep going!

don't compare yourself to others. do the best YOU can.

Some the bar and some 250lbs.

It all depends on how long youve been lifting and how hard

above average

The only thing that matters is that you're doing >140 in 3-4 weeks. Get stronger every lift, no matter the age.

It's really good I was only benching 125 as a freshman and that was considered good compared to the kids stuck at 90lbs

[Corky124]

Been training for 1 month and mines only 150... keep it up bro your doing well for your age

[boomboombam6]

When I was 14 I benched 100 lbs, big improvement from just the bar (45). Haha, those were the days.

[ballin43]

depends on the time you have been lifting

and weight/height (arm length plays a huge role in how much you can bench)

[RainingBlood]

The average 14 year old benches exactly 123.67 pounds.

[Thejacka0]

The average 14 year old benches exactly 123.67 pounds.

Wrong I have a quote from a Teen Health Magazine Article....

"The average 14 year old benches exactly 122.67 pounds"

[PatsBruinsSox]

What kind of question is this? Your age =/= how much you can bench.

[LogicalTaco]

The amount you should bench is what you can bench. Everyone has a different body, and even as an adult, it's impossible to say "oh this is a set amount." It's okay to compare, but do it for yourself. Not for others. Keep up the work man!

[Ironface]

How much should you bench? Slightly more than you did last time.

It is average, I benched as much as you when I was a freshman if not more, my max on bench when I was a freshman was 165, while the freshmen in my school bench freakin' cows, they do steroids probably and I might make a forum thread discussing this topic very soon.

Not if they actually work out

[thejackal801]

I benched 225 when i was 14, now im 15 i do 225 for 8

[CJK2020]

if you really weigh 190 pounds than 140 is, eh. i mean everyone is different so you can't really find an average considering everyone's body is different. for example, i'm 160 and can bench 190, and 14. we're all different.

[Slickbm]

I'm 14 and I can bench 185

[leanandmean78]

When I was 14..I could bench 130 once. you're above average doesn't matter though take this time to get way above everyone else if you play a sport. People will catch up fast if you slacking off. if youre 190 then its about average

[PendlayRow8500]

95 (

205 bench before Jan 1st is a goal of mine.

Don't compare yourself to others, not worth it in the long run.

Peace

[Sjallday]

I read somewhere the average adult has like a max bench of 1 plate. Assuming that is true, I'd say you're well above average. Also, I could barely bench more than the bar at 14 lol...
