You should be able to bench between 1-1.5 of your body weight. So, if you weigh 100 pounds you should bench between 100-150. Lower than 100 pounds your considered weak. Higher â¦ than 150 pounds and your really strong in my example.
The rule of thumb is that you should never max out your weight, for fear of doing serious damage to a muscle (such as tearing it, or separating it from its connecting tissue).â¦ Ideally, you should bench press at a maximum a weight that you can lift 8-10 times, but that you need a spotter's help on the last lift.
