How much can an average man bench press?

There is really no such thing as an "average". Some guys have more muscle mass than others, allowing for more weight to be moved. Some guys spend hours in the gym each week to build their capacity. Most muscle mass and strength is achieved from late teens through late twenties. As your age increases, your capacity to build and tone muscle decreases. Regardless of size or strength, genetics is the primary key to what you can achieve. Proper diet and natural supplements can help but short of illegal steroids, your genetics are going to determine how large and strong you can get.

What supplements do you have to take to build muscles fast?

None, the best way for you to gain muscle would be very few reps of an extreme amount of weight, never do more than 10 at a time, of course you can always take Anabolic Steroids, but these can have a harmful affect on your control of your anger, as you might get random outburst of rage, plus testicular shrinkage, meaning you lose the "One Muscle That Counts", I would recommend either going to your doctor and getting a good plan together with them or do muscle training once per muscle group, and few reps with heavy weights once a day, and twice a day do Cardio work-outs such as running, swimming, climbing, ect. (Now the Cardio is just for a healthier body, it doesn't give you a huge amount of muscle but is equally important.

What type of skills are required in weightlifting?

In pro wrestling, natural athleticism is a must. Coordination is also a big one. Most importantly, you need to be able to think clearly during a major adrenaline rush, while being slammed, suplexed and pounded on, so that you remember where you are and the story you're trying to tell. Also, patience. Nobody gets good overnight. Most guys on TV took five years or more to even get noticed in the business.

If you attend a good wrestling school, all of the things listed above will be developed. I've found that there's no real way to tell if someone is good or not until they go to a wrestling school and try it.

What are good workouts to improve your chest muscles?

The 2 best chest exercises in my most humble opinion are the bench press and weighted dips. These are compound exercises. As for isolation exercises, one may also want to try doing flyes with dumbbells and a pec deck machine.

The bench press, which is one of the Big Five Barbell lifts has variations such as the incline and decline bench press which hit the chest muscles at different angles.

12 year old bench press max?

There is probably no "average" bench press max because of that fact that it varies greatly depending on the upperbody strength of the individual. However for males in highschool, especially athletes, benchpress maxes have been achieved at massive weights such as over 500 lbs ( Sam Harvill Shiloh Christian Academy- 520 lb bench as highshool junior). There are no statistics that cover the "average" benchpress due to the fact that not everyone has attempted to max out on the bench. As a junior football player in highschool, my benchpress max is 320 lbs and I am one of the strongest in my school. If you are benching over 300 lbs and in highschool, you are in good shape but there are few who have gone beyond what was once considered impossible.

Is the best way to gain weight to take your protein pre and post-workout and take Creatine right after a workout?

Protein is best after a workout. Muscles rip during exercise and the rebuilding process is what makes them stronger. That's when you need the protein. Also, protein before a workout can cause digestive issues during that workout. ______________________________________________________________________ Answer:

Creatine actually causes your muscle cells to absorb more water which makes them look bigger which gives us an illusion of extra size and mass. Effectively speaking, once you cut down on your creatine intake, the muscles would start releasing the excess water and you may end up feeling your muscles shrink in size. But, one good thing about creatine is that, it helps you gain that extra strength needed to do heavy workouts. Though it only packs water into our muscles, a properly administered dosage/cycle of creatine can help you in gaining weight and strength.

How much weights should a teen lift?

Assuming that your skeleton is ready for the stresses of weight training (which usually occurs around age 16, in my opinion), you should concentrate on the fundamental exercises (namely, squats, deadlifts, presses, rows, dips, and chins) just like everyone else who is beginning a serious weight-training program.

It is very important to learn and use perfect exercise technique right from the beginning. Avoid dangerous exercises. Avoid using weights that are so heavy that you get 4 or fewer reps (until you get older, in my opinion). Do injury prevention exercises (such as L-flyes and side bends). Instead of letting your ego drive you into rushing your development, think of yourself as laying the foundation for a lifetime of productive training. Perhaps the best book to get you started correctly is Stuart McRobert's BUILD MUSCLE LOSE FAT LOOK GREAT.

Unless you do circuit training, weight training has little direct affect on the heart rate. Weight training is anaerobic exercise. It is aerobic exercise like walking or running that has a direct affect on the heart rate because it strengthens the heart. Weight training does not.

Should you take whey protein every day?

Whey protein is better than other proteins because it has the highest Biological Value (BV) of any known protein. This means that the proportion of protein that is absorbed and incorporated into your body's proteins is higher from whey protein than from other protein sources.

Even though whey protein is the best kind, you can easily consume enough protein to meet your body's needs through other forms of protein, you just have to consume a bit more than you otherwise would if you were consuming whey protein.

Also, there is one very good reason why whey protein can be better than other protein sources. If you get un-denatured whey protein, it will substantially boost your intracellular glutathione. This is a very big deal.

In order to boost your glutathione production, you need raw protein. Some protein powders are denatured and some are un-denatued. You need an un-denaturedprotein. Think about it, where else can you get raw protein in your diet?
Protein is good for you
