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.
Five sets of bench presses are recommended for most people. On heavier days, warm up with a set of 10 repetitions at about 50 percent of body weight. Then do one set of 8 repetitions, one with 6 and one with between 3 and 5 repetitions. Try to get at least 2 to 3 repetitions on the last set. Only power lifters and experienced bodybuilders should max out on the bench press.
