What is the average bench press weight for a 14 year old male?

Answer 1

You should not try to do much weight. If you have a good spotter you could probably do your body weight. But remember what's more important? Bengkulu 200lbs or doing your body weight 10 times?

Answer 2

When I was 14 that is when I started to weight lift and I started off at 115 pounds and I weight 164. Now a year later I could bench 225 and I was 180 pounds. So I would say on average. If you are starting maybe 100 pounds or less. And if you have been weight lifting around 185-225

Answer 3

The average 14 year old shouldn't be working on his max bench press. Speed, flexibility, balance, coordination, timing, endurance should be the emphasis. A variety of physical activities with a focus on key sports will do better than time on a bench. Lifting at 14 might make a very small difference in ability at football or Wrestling but otherwise is boring and can stunt growth and cause early baldness.

when i was 14 i was lifting 225 and I'm 5'3

I totally agree with the guy writing above but don't start any chest workout without doing stretches first and then dumbbell flies. Dumbbell flies isolate the chest which gets it tired first so when you do end up bench pressing your triceps and front deltoids don't get tired first. I'm 14 and I can do dumbbell flies of 60 lbs. in each hand, and I can bench press 210 lbs. I'm 5" 9" and I've been working out for a year and a half so don't expect yourself to start off benching tons when you first start working out.

Also I highly recommend buying The Arnold Swarchinagger Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding. It is not about steroids at all mainly workouts and exercises so try it you won't regret it.

Answer 4

i bench 190.....6ft 160lbs.....just turned 14.

I Literally just turned 14 i am 5 foot 11 and a half inches, 169.4pounds (77kg) and i can bench press 150 kg. I swim but i don't train for heavy weights. however i do do a half hour weight routine with 1-7 kg weights depending on the area as I'm only 14 and i don't want to be preventing growth by chucking too bigger weights around. tbh the most helpful thing i have found being able to push big weights around is when I'm angry I throw around this old 4 person couch we have on the lawn. Its also a good confidence booster as it took 2 burly men to get it up the stairs to our house and I managed to throw a 60ish kg couch almost 15 meters. That goes to show how much strength anger lends you. I am also im an area where there are a lot of farms, and this means there is a lot of quite strong guys around from working on farms, and in the holidays everyone helps with the big hay bales on various farms.
