These standards are incredibly weak Realizing you aren’t strong yet is not demotivation It’s the truth If you are heavier than 140 and aren’t at least benching 200 pounds then you should reevaluate what you’re doing
Listen everyone don't listen to these ego lifters. Most of these influencers are just roid abusers or just got lucky genes because trust me you are not gonna bench press 100kg in just a year. Just train hovewer you like and do whatever you want and the gains will eventually come, for some people its faster and for others much longer. Just workout regullary and don't get discoureged by clowns like these.
Oh man I was questioning my sanity, are these kids serious ? 100 kg in a year? If you can bench 60 kg for 5 reps in that lil time you should be proud, these people should be banned from ever "influencing" anybody
Completely arbitrary number and exercise. Why 100kgs? Because its a round number? Why the bench press? How many men can bench 100kg but cant do 5 pull ups or run 5k.
2-3 years is the standard it is quite clear. Two gyms heavy bench areas I use (same gym club different sites) and not many get at or above 225. Like 10%.
This is dumb. Every body is different and of different strength. You can't expect a 5 feet 5, 125 pound man to lift 100 kg. Meanwhile, a chubby 6 foot 4 guy might lift 100kg without any training. Everyone is different and it's dumb to compare. Not everyone wants to become huge. I am a lot stronger now at 43 than in my 20s just because I weigh more. I benched 100kg for the first time of my life at 43 years old.
I’ve been training consistently for 1 year. I went from 35kg 1 rep max to 70kg 1 rep max bench. Double bench strength is not too bad but i’m not close to 100kg. Maybe because i’m 17, 6’1 and 70kg. I need to put on more weight
6,1 and 70kg id definetly say try and bulk up a bit. 75kg-78kg would be a good aim. congrats on your progress man. if its expensive to bulk what I did was have oats for calories in the morning, protein powder and an extra chicken breast in my dinner
Bro eat more I am 6ft and my weight has not increased after 74kg i have been lifting for 8 months now. I don't know my max bench but my last bench set is 80 kg * 5 reps. I right now do dumbell presses as they are easier on the shoulder.
Bro nobody who is 16 years old and 60 kilos realistically benches 100 kilos. Its super rare and i know alot of lifters 16 years old and none of them come close to 100 kilos. You must have lifted for a long time to achieve that unless if you are already very strong from genetics and other sports.
Also has aid from ped use,(dosages vary and many today implement small amounts of peds which still impacts performance compared to their lifetime natural selves) though he likely may have benched or could have benched 100kgs in a year or two as 1 in 20 or so lifters as naturals get to that level within their first year or two. Everyone is different and their response to training will vary. Just like height, men have varying starting points and ceilings In strength. 99.9 percent of men who are lifetime naturals will never be over 200lbs while lean with abs, so , for most people who lift which are majority of viewers on youtube. Also, as a natural most will reach over 90% of their max potential in strength within the first 4-5 years while training under a decent lifting program as an adult, this can be moved a few years if starting as a young teen. This is coming from a guy who benched 225x23 reps as a 16 year old. Lifted since I was 12 at the time. I've had say 20 or so guys in my school between 9th-12 grade who were able to bench 225+ in a school of around 500 males. 225 for 5 reps -8 reps for guys of average weight (180 ish) is flat out strong for natural lifters and not everyone can get there. It's hard to draw the line as to where "average" is but I know for certain the average man after only a year training can NOT bench 225lbs. The number is closer to 190 ish.
Don't be obsessed about your bench press, the risks do not outweigh the benetits, just make sure you are generall fit. A lot of pro athletes don't bench press 100 and are much fitter than this guy.
When I was 19 I entered the gym for the first time. I trained consistently for 2 years and I reached 100kg bench (3-4 reps proper form. I got lazy after that and never trained consistently again. Now I’m 29 and recently got back into the gym. Within a month I can bench 80kg (8-12reps, no issue) haven’t bothered to try heavier weight yet but I think I could do it. 178cm always been around 68-72kg

If you are a big guy then yes. Some small men cant get it fast because low bodyweight. I am 5'6 it took me 2 years to bench 225 because i was 110lbs i was able to bench 225 when i am 160lbs.
I benched 100kg today after 1,5 years of training, but I am also 190cm and weighing 83kg. And I am happy with that progress since I only started benching 3 weeks ago. My first real bench was 80kg because I didn’t trust my form, I still don’t but I am working on it.
Theres no rule that says 100kg is what you should achieve after a year. Most recreational lifters who have an average BMI, will struggle to achieve that. BUT, 100kg is definitely achievable if you spend a year bulking and focusing on bench press. Especially if you have a higher BMI or shorter arms. An 80kg guy who's 5ft8, will find a 100kg bench easier than a 70kg person who's 6ft tall.
was a drunk fat alcoholic for years, decided to change, went from 225 down to 175 in 4 months,now im 165 lbs (my fighting weight lol) now and ill probably have 200 lbs up within the next 2 months....i was in shape for years, i already have the "muscle memory" so i understand not everyone can get there as fast.
depnds on bodyweight. If You want to get there faster i would say dont be afraid of bulking. Also majority of people who got a bad bench likely arent hitting their triceps hard enough. The chest grows pretty dam easily assuming you bench with the bar touching your chest everytime. I had to isolate triceps to be able to start repping 100kg or 225 with ease. My chest was way ahead of my triceps.
@@gamefreak173 true I see most guys who weigh like 130 pounds it takes them like 4-5 years to bench it and on the other hand I see guys who are like 230 that bench 2 plates within 8 months or so
If y’all wanna increase ur bench, pls take my word frfr. Train the absolute shit out of your triceps. My gains went up like crazy. So I use to bench 195lb everyday to the point I actually started to fail it bc I think I had a slack or sum ider but when I watched a vid of how to actually boost up ur gains on the bench is to train ur triceps n set days for u to bench (not ur max every day) n I did. N ima using the HPS method (H=As many reps as u can with lightweight you can control, P=Explode with a lot of power with very light weight for 5 reps, and S= Ur max day) n when I did this, bro I went from 195 to 215. So if u wanna go get ur gains up on the bench, I recommend u to use the HPS method and use it every week. Like Monday ur going to work on H, Wednesday ur going to work on p, n Friday ur going to do ur max. Ur welcome if this worked, if not, idk what to say but thats tuff.
Bro 100kg from 1 year of training, I’m 16 at the min and started lifting around a year ago, my max bench is 57.5 but I started being able to barely bench the bar
Took me 2 years. I'm 5'11, started in 2022 at 127bw, now at 148bw and can do 100kg(225lbs)x1 I noticed flat dumbbell pressing got easier too even though i didn't train it much. I can rep 60lbs with ease, and can do 80's for like 4 to 6 reps
Everyone has their own methods of improving for me doing sets of 10's on comfortable weight and adding 5kgs every 3-4 weeks really helped me I don't claim to be a bench specialist or anything my 1rm is currently 110kg aiming for 140kg by the end of 2024!
I bench once a week on my chest and back workout with a rep range of 5-7, my bench has never increased faster and I hit 225 recently from starting at a 120 pound 1 rep max 10 months ago
This is very true im 15 years old 180 bw first month of training i was only at 125lb bench and ive been training for 7 months now and just hit 2 plates on bench yesterday consistency is key
225 lb in one year? This lout is crazy. Very few people at any of two gyms I go to (same brand, different sites) bench 225 lb. In the real world, this is about 3 years work.
Just at one year mark trying out bench, and hit 195lb two days ago. Slammed it back. Should have tried 200. This means by summer (3 months) will get to 205, and 225 by the end of the year, or early next year is in view.
Today tried 200, was so easy went to get the gym manager who promises to spot for me to try a new max and did 205 just fine. A new max I always just do one rep. Then if I want to do more, I take a quick break and do another single rep. I do that and not tired I move up in reps.
UP. YOUR. FREQUENCY. You shouldn’t be hitting a certain weight after a certain amount of time in the gym. I don’t care for your age or how much you weigh, strength varies from person to person and gloating is cringe af But I will say this, my genetics aren’t very great. At 18yrs old I weighed under 50kg (110lb) at 5ft 10 and when I started at the gym I failed just the bar, couldn’t even get a rep. My bench has always been weak, but upping my bench from once a week to 2-3 times a week has SKY ROCKETED it, last week got 2 plates for 8 reps. So for anyone worried about whether or not they have potential to bench 100kg, I believe you can. Just. Up. Your. Frequency. Oh and keep tweaking your form until it’s perfect (you can bench wider than you think)
Ive been training for nearly 10 years and still havent hit 100 kg bench...hes actually cookin fr. For me its consistency I get to a place where I feel good about myself and I stop training
Same and that's the norm, I swear these guys should be fought cuz what they do is the reverse of "influencing" they're demotivating kids into believing they're losers when they're completely okay, 100 kg is HEAVY for most people period
@@apexstylez7028 67 years old here, and bench has moved up yesterday to 205. 225 by summer, maybe earlier. My spotter was the gym manager. Want his name?
Took me 2 years to hit 100kg bench for a pause and i had to take my bodyweight from 62kg to 92kg. Now after 12 years im close to 180kg paused bench at 110kg while still natural
I am 23 years old and 150 lbs weight at the moment, and I started combination gymnastics with calisthenics in 10-11 months ago. Thanks to discipline and supplement, I have completely control bench from 100 lbs up to 200 lbs and still level up. Therefore the way he talks still possible guys! Remember nothing is impossible!
I just started going to the gym about 3 weeks ago. First day I repped 100kg for 3 reps with no spot. Im 40 but I used to go to the gym a lot in my teen years but after 2 decades you're muscles still remember the movement. Im 6' and 180 lbs. Everyone is different.
this is true. I've been under the 100kg for more than a year but I was working out like shit+ not even benching at all. In 6 months I've got my 1rm from 77 to 90-93
my 1RM was 50kgs when I was around 52 kgs. It sounds nice being able to bench my own weight. That was long ago and I haven’t benched a long time. I am now doing home gym. I have a pull-up bar and a barbell where I can curl 37,5kg. I will try to do 42kg in a few days. I usually do the barbells curl during the day when I feel like it and it helps a lot. Pull-ups also helped me a lot in strength. When i started doing pull-ups I couldn’t even take 3, I could only do 1 pullup. Now I can do 10 pullups at least. Helped me with chest, back, abs, shoulder and bicep. Basically the whole upper body, which is great. I feel strong now I am 17 and I weight 57 now
I agree 100% but I would say eating enough food after you benched 80kg+ is important, I benched 100kg after a year at 14 years old and it could've been faster if I ate a bit more
I’ve been in the gym 5 days 2024 and 28 days 2023. And I hit 265 on bench people think it’s not natural bc I’m so inconsistent but I do lots of pushups on the side so it was very easy going from 225 to 265 in 5 days
just hit my fist set of 100kg this week after 2 years of training, was a set of 5 reps as well...felt like I could have done it a while ago but wasn't confident enough.
It depends on genetics. I reached 200 kg deadlift faster than 100 kg bench. Its not that am a bad bencher. But I have long arms which increases ROM. This is why it will be slower for me compared to some one with short arms
I'll consider myself lucky then I go gym 2-3 times a week for 2 months I went from 8 reps of 60kg to 8 reps of 80kg and I'm going to give 90kg a go tomorrow then 100kg within 2 months I'm 80kg 5"9 and I've been on a diet of only 400g of chicken a day too and still my strength is improving, I don't take no protein or supplements, it's unhealthy I know but it seems to be working I've only got 8 kg to lose then I can start getting my diet right. I won't lie I've been feeling like crap lately light headed and all sorts but I'm so close to my ideal weight I've lost 2 stone so far so hopefully I can do it in 3 weeks.
Setting standards like this is stupid and not motivating to others, telling a 16 year old kid who looks like he’s built out of knex and can barely bench the bar that 100kg is the minimum a male should bench, is just gonna make him feel like sh*t about himself. Instead you should say, “every male is capable of benching 100kg if they put the work in.” Your approach is egotistical, and a back handed way of putting others down indirectly, whether you realize it or are subconsciously doing it.
I am one of those genetic freaks who did 100kg the first month I worked out. But then it didn't progesss vry much. Now I can do 160kg which is good but compared to where I started it is only ok. My advice is to strengthen shoulders to build a stable platform when pushing.
Try being 6'6 with long arms. I could barely bench 100 pounds for 5 reps when i started. Now after 16 months of consistent training I'm at about 150 pounds for 5.
I’ve been training for over a year, tracking my calories and getting enough protein and my bench is mere 85kg at 75kg bodyweight. I’m 16 and I do have a coach. 100kg benchpress for sb my weight is an impressive achievement: 1,33x body weight bench. Realistically that should take people with gifted genetics at least a year, for most 2-3. As somebody without great genetics I do have to work harder than the individual that made that video. Bodyweight can severely impact your bench performance: 100kg bench at 90kg is much less impressive than the one at 70kg.
I benched 100kg when I was 15. What did I benefit from alot of benching? Shoulder pain. So here I am, 32 years old and haven't benched for like 8 years, just because of discomfort in my shoulder while doing it.
I hit 2 plates a couple of days ago I’m 16 76-77 kg I’ve been working out for like a year and a half but up until a month ago I was doing bench like twice a month since it was in like a studio where there were station but now my parents let me sign up for an actual gym
With Point #2 I disagree I think you should do whatever works for you since there’s no one solution. Whatever exercise you think would be best done next do it.
Guys don’t listen to this guy. Take it at your own pace. You don’t have to hit 100kg in one year. But obviously like he said, stick to a plan and you’ll see progress. Eventually you’ll get there

If you are heavier than 140 and aren’t at least benching 200 pounds then you should reevaluate what you’re doing
He has anabolic in his name 😂
If ur not benching 300 with one finger after 3 minsof training u should quit the gym
I'm 15 82 kg and bench 100kg after going gym 7 month I also only bench once a week
@@TheRealOwen1230that's slightly below averages not incredibly weak, you clearly don't don't know what you're talking about
Listen everyone don't listen to these ego lifters. Most of these influencers are just roid abusers or just got lucky genes because trust me you are not gonna bench press 100kg in just a year. Just train hovewer you like and do whatever you want and the gains will eventually come, for some people its faster and for others much longer. Just workout regullary and don't get discoureged by clowns like these.
Oh man I was questioning my sanity, are these kids serious ? 100 kg in a year? If you can bench 60 kg for 5 reps in that lil time you should be proud, these people should be banned from ever "influencing" anybody
If you cant rep 100kgs at 5 kgs bodyweight 4 minutes after you join the gym, you are not a man
yep if you cant do this then take tren or stop gym forever
Completely arbitrary number and exercise. Why 100kgs? Because its a round number? Why the bench press? How many men can bench 100kg but cant do 5 pull ups or run 5k.
Some ppl didn’t start where you did, 100kg may be achievable for you in a year but might take someone else 2-3 years
2-3 years is the standard it is quite clear. Two gyms heavy bench areas I use (same gym club different sites) and not many get at or above 225. Like 10%.
Bs. Dont listen this if you love your joints. İncrease slowly.
That’s pretty good advice actually I use a ton of braces to help soften the joint damage
Lol that’s enough out of you pin cushion
Fun fact, not everyone wants to train to have a strong bench, people have sports to play.
This is dumb. Every body is different and of different strength. You can't expect a 5 feet 5, 125 pound man to lift 100 kg. Meanwhile, a chubby 6 foot 4 guy might lift 100kg without any training. Everyone is different and it's dumb to compare. Not everyone wants to become huge. I am a lot stronger now at 43 than in my 20s just because I weigh more. I benched 100kg for the first time of my life at 43 years old.
I’ve been training consistently for 1 year. I went from 35kg 1 rep max to 70kg 1 rep max bench. Double bench strength is not too bad but i’m not close to 100kg. Maybe because i’m 17, 6’1 and 70kg. I need to put on more weight
6,1 and 70kg id definetly say try and bulk up a bit. 75kg-78kg would be a good aim. congrats on your progress man. if its expensive to bulk what I did was have oats for calories in the morning, protein powder and an extra chicken breast in my dinner
Bro eat more I am 6ft and my weight has not increased after 74kg i have been lifting for 8 months now. I don't know my max bench but my last bench set is 80 kg * 5 reps. I right now do dumbell presses as they are easier on the shoulder.
You have plenty of time to get to target..keep healthy and the world is your oyster bruh
Where are you know ?
To be honest the key to a stronger bench is to train back and triceps like hell. Also, you have to train heavier for less explosive reps per set.
"100 push ups is the minimum a man should do"
See, I can play that game too.
I bench 1 time per week and still bench over 150 kilo
Bro nobody who is 16 years old and 60 kilos realistically benches 100 kilos. Its super rare and i know alot of lifters 16 years old and none of them come close to 100 kilos. You must have lifted for a long time to achieve that unless if you are already very strong from genetics and other sports.
Also has aid from ped use,(dosages vary and many today implement small amounts of peds which still impacts performance compared to their lifetime natural selves) though he likely may have benched or could have benched 100kgs in a year or two as 1 in 20 or so lifters as naturals get to that level within their first year or two. Everyone is different and their response to training will vary. Just like height, men have varying starting points and ceilings In strength. 99.9 percent of men who are lifetime naturals will never be over 200lbs while lean with abs, so , for most people who lift which are majority of viewers on youtube. Also, as a natural most will reach over 90% of their max potential in strength within the first 4-5 years while training under a decent lifting program as an adult, this can be moved a few years if starting as a young teen. This is coming from a guy who benched 225x23 reps as a 16 year old. Lifted since I was 12 at the time. I've had say 20 or so guys in my school between 9th-12 grade who were able to bench 225+ in a school of around 500 males. 225 for 5 reps -8 reps for guys of average weight (180 ish) is flat out strong for natural lifters and not everyone can get there. It's hard to draw the line as to where "average" is but I know for certain the average man after only a year training can NOT bench 225lbs. The number is closer to 190 ish.
Don't be obsessed about your bench press, the risks do not outweigh the benetits, just make sure you are generall fit. A lot of pro athletes don't bench press 100 and are much fitter than this guy.
Exactly. Jay Cutler for example never bench presses. You don‘t need to do certain exercises if you can do others to achieve your goals!
When I was 19 I entered the gym for the first time. I trained consistently for 2 years and I reached 100kg bench (3-4 reps proper form. I got lazy after that and never trained consistently again.
Now I’m 29 and recently got back into the gym. Within a month I can bench 80kg (8-12reps, no issue) haven’t bothered to try heavier weight yet but I think I could do it.
178cm always been around 68-72kg
You linearly lose 2 reps per 10 lbs extra wt, so in pounds you take 175 + 50 = 225 is your 1 rep max.

it depends on ur bw actually. if u can bench 1.2 times you bw it is good enough.
Lighter you are the more times you can lift your body weight bc square cube law and cross sectional strength in relation to volume.
I recently turned 16, and I wanted to try 100kg sooner but I didn't have time, I felt sad but this summer I'm going to achieve it since I have a method to structurally reach 100kg Currently my calculated pr is 101 kg but I'm going to wait to make sure and have everything ready, it's going to be an incredible moment, what a win😁😁
All these damn betas crying in the comments. 100kgs is easily attainable in a year
If you are a big guy then yes. Some small men cant get it fast because low bodyweight. I am 5'6 it took me 2 years to bench 225 because i was 110lbs i was able to bench 225 when i am 160lbs.
@@Han-nk3io I was 160-170 something when I first benched 225 and it took me 6 months. I was 190 when I first benched 315 and it took me 4 years
I am 55 years old and weigh 115kg … I can bench 90kg after 2 months.
Ask your gym instructor to teach you … proper form is essential
Most humans will never get to 100kg bench, stop pushing bs.
your mind is full of bs lmao
I benched 100kg today after 1,5 years of training, but I am also 190cm and weighing 83kg. And I am happy with that progress since I only started benching 3 weeks ago. My first real bench was 80kg because I didn’t trust my form, I still don’t but I am working on it.
83 kg is pretty Big tho
Is this one rep or multiple??
@@lilphoenix6341 just one rep
@@jakobgrene5905 83kg is big? lmao
DAMN. after 3 weeks only? I know you said you had already 1,5 years of training, but that's still impressive.
How much can you bench now?
Theres no rule that says 100kg is what you should achieve after a year. Most recreational lifters who have an average BMI, will struggle to achieve that.
BUT, 100kg is definitely achievable if you spend a year bulking and focusing on bench press. Especially if you have a higher BMI or shorter arms. An 80kg guy who's 5ft8, will find a 100kg bench easier than a 70kg person who's 6ft tall.
Got 100kgs in 4 months....what got me stronger was focusing on the small things.
If you do bodybuilding and your goal is to gain muscle, most people never need to bench a 100KG
Actually only 1% can bench 100kg
I don’t follow a structured program and still make progress, I just know which workouts target which muscle
was a drunk fat alcoholic for years, decided to change, went from 225 down to 175 in 4 months,now im 165 lbs (my fighting weight lol) now and ill probably have 200 lbs up within the next 2 months....i was in shape for years, i already have the "muscle memory" so i understand not everyone can get there as fast.
The real question is how long will it take to bench 225 while being natural
Id say most guys fall between 1-2 years
depnds on bodyweight. If You want to get there faster i would say dont be afraid of bulking. Also majority of people who got a bad bench likely arent hitting their triceps hard enough. The chest grows pretty dam easily assuming you bench with the bar touching your chest everytime. I had to isolate triceps to be able to start repping 100kg or 225 with ease. My chest was way ahead of my triceps.
@@gamefreak173 true I see most guys who weigh like 130 pounds it takes them like 4-5 years to bench it and on the other hand I see guys who are like 230 that bench 2 plates within 8 months or so
If y’all wanna increase ur bench, pls take my word frfr. Train the absolute shit out of your triceps. My gains went up like crazy. So I use to bench 195lb everyday to the point I actually started to fail it bc I think I had a slack or sum ider but when I watched a vid of how to actually boost up ur gains on the bench is to train ur triceps n set days for u to bench (not ur max every day) n I did. N ima using the HPS method (H=As many reps as u can with lightweight you can control, P=Explode with a lot of power with very light weight for 5 reps, and S= Ur max day) n when I did this, bro I went from 195 to 215. So if u wanna go get ur gains up on the bench, I recommend u to use the HPS method and use it every week. Like Monday ur going to work on H, Wednesday ur going to work on p, n Friday ur going to do ur max. Ur welcome if this worked, if not, idk what to say but thats tuff.
Big triceps make your arms look bigger too it’s win win, but I agree heavy tricep work outs are key to improving your bench press
@@hockey_highlights_and_more but i wanna grow my chest though not my triceps
Bro 100kg from 1 year of training, I’m 16 at the min and started lifting around a year ago, my max bench is 57.5 but I started being able to barely bench the bar
No need for high frequency training. Volume should come from ACCESSORY exercises, NOT the main movement
Bet you tell your Facebook everytime you hit the gym lol
Took me 2 years. I'm 5'11, started in 2022 at 127bw, now at 148bw and can do 100kg(225lbs)x1
I noticed flat dumbbell pressing got easier too even though i didn't train it much. I can rep 60lbs with ease, and can do 80's for like 4 to 6 reps
Everyone has their own methods of improving for me doing sets of 10's on comfortable weight and adding 5kgs every 3-4 weeks really helped me I don't claim to be a bench specialist or anything my 1rm is currently 110kg aiming for 140kg by the end of 2024!
I bench once a week on my chest and back workout with a rep range of 5-7, my bench has never increased faster and I hit 225 recently from starting at a 120 pound 1 rep max 10 months ago
This is very true im 15 years old 180 bw first month of training i was only at 125lb bench and ive been training for 7 months now and just hit 2 plates on bench yesterday consistency is key
lol this short funny as hell. I hit 205lbs x 3 today after 1 month, Imma hit 100kg in a month or two for 8-10 reps
If you cant hit this its likely that your sarm intensity and tren ethic is the issue, and you need to change this.
Did it in 5 months 💪progressive overload!
225 lb in one year? This lout is crazy. Very few people at any of two gyms I go to (same brand, different sites) bench 225 lb. In the real world, this is about 3 years work.
Just at one year mark trying out bench, and hit 195lb two days ago. Slammed it back. Should have tried 200. This means by summer (3 months) will get to 205, and 225 by the end of the year, or early next year is in view.
Today tried 200, was so easy went to get the gym manager who promises to spot for me to try a new max and did 205 just fine. A new max I always just do one rep. Then if I want to do more, I take a quick break and do another single rep. I do that and not tired I move up in reps.
205 no spotter needed the other day. Will try 215 soon.
UP. YOUR. FREQUENCY.
You shouldn’t be hitting a certain weight after a certain amount of time in the gym. I don’t care for your age or how much you weigh, strength varies from person to person and gloating is cringe af
But I will say this, my genetics aren’t very great.
At 18yrs old I weighed under 50kg (110lb) at 5ft 10 and when I started at the gym I failed just the bar, couldn’t even get a rep. My bench has always been weak, but upping my bench from once a week to 2-3 times a week has SKY ROCKETED it, last week got 2 plates for 8 reps. So for anyone worried about whether or not they have potential to bench 100kg, I believe you can. Just. Up. Your. Frequency. Oh and keep tweaking your form until it’s perfect (you can bench wider than you think)
Train bench 1x a week with a high intensity. Still managed to hit a 100kg bench after 10 months of training and a 14 years old, 70kg bw
Ive been training for nearly 10 years and still havent hit 100 kg bench...hes actually cookin fr. For me its consistency I get to a place where I feel good about myself and I stop training
A year wtf!!! I reached a 100kg after 4 years
Same and that's the norm, I swear these guys should be fought cuz what they do is the reverse of "influencing" they're demotivating kids into believing they're losers when they're completely okay, 100 kg is HEAVY for most people period
At 53 years old I still hope one day to bench 100k
100 ton sounds great!

It was necessary to say "natural".
@@alteredstate4320 30kg in 2 yeara wasn't all muscle ofc. That's how much I had to bulk

Thanks to discipline and supplement, I have completely control bench from 100 lbs up to 200 lbs and still level up. Therefore the way he talks still possible guys! Remember nothing is impossible!
Im 115 pounds, and i bench 315 in my first year of training
I just started going to the gym about 3 weeks ago. First day I repped 100kg for 3 reps with no spot. Im 40 but I used to go to the gym a lot in my teen years but after 2 decades you're muscles still remember the movement. Im 6' and 180 lbs. Everyone is different.
this is true. I've been under the 100kg for more than a year but I was working out like shit+ not even benching at all. In 6 months I've got my 1rm from 77 to 90-93
I am 80 kg bodyweight, 183 cam and I’ve been going to the gym for 1,5 years and I can bench 80. Is that bad?
Oh and I’m 14 years old btw.
At that age its fine, your balls haven't fully dropped yet. Most dudes don't hit their prime until their mid 20s
my 1RM was 50kgs when I was around 52 kgs. It sounds nice being able to bench my own weight. That was long ago and I haven’t benched a long time.
I am now doing home gym. I have a pull-up bar and a barbell where I can curl 37,5kg. I will try to do 42kg in a few days. I usually do the barbells curl during the day when I feel like it and it helps a lot.
Pull-ups also helped me a lot in strength. When i started doing pull-ups I couldn’t even take 3, I could only do 1 pullup. Now I can do 10 pullups at least. Helped me with chest, back, abs, shoulder and bicep. Basically the whole upper body, which is great.
I feel strong now
I am 17 and I weight 57 now
I hit 100 kilos after 3 months of lifting at 43, it’s really not that hard, i could only lift 40 when i started in January
You’re 43 my guy. No duh it ain’t that hard
@@hoesmad2879 nope it really isn’t, just stay consistent with progressive overload and you’ll get there
So another 3 months and you will bench 200kg.
I agree 100% but I would say eating enough food after you benched 80kg+ is important, I benched 100kg after a year at 14 years old and it could've been faster if I ate a bit more
I'm 17 and 75 kg and been going to the gym for 10 months and today I hit my pr of 60 kg for the first time after typhoid Am I doing good my friends??
I’ve been in the gym 5 days 2024 and 28 days 2023. And I hit 265 on bench people think it’s not natural bc I’m so inconsistent but I do lots of pushups on the side so it was very easy going from 225 to 265 in 5 days
Idgaf about Bench Press Let's see your Squat and Deadlifts? THAT's what I want going up. Bench Press ain't shete.
just hit my fist set of 100kg this week after 2 years of training, was a set of 5 reps as well...felt like I could have done it a while ago but wasn't confident enough.
It depends on genetics. I reached 200 kg deadlift faster than 100 kg bench.
Its not that am a bad bencher. But I have long arms which increases ROM. This is why it will be slower for me compared to some one with short arms
Im 77% sure this is satire with some actual good information
It takes some people many years to reach 100kg, naturally. Some never get there
I'll consider myself lucky then I go gym 2-3 times a week for 2 months I went from 8 reps of 60kg to 8 reps of 80kg and I'm going to give 90kg a go tomorrow then 100kg within 2 months I'm 80kg 5"9 and I've been on a diet of only 400g of chicken a day too and still my strength is improving, I don't take no protein or supplements, it's unhealthy I know but it seems to be working I've only got 8 kg to lose then I can start getting my diet right. I won't lie I've been feeling like crap lately light headed and all sorts but I'm so close to my ideal weight I've lost 2 stone so far so hopefully I can do it in
3 weeks.
I dont see how this is possibke
Setting standards like this is stupid and not motivating to others, telling a 16 year old kid who looks like he’s built out of knex and can barely bench the bar that 100kg is the minimum a male should bench, is just gonna make him feel like sh*t about himself. Instead you should say, “every male is capable of benching 100kg if they put the work in.” Your approach is egotistical, and a back handed way of putting others down indirectly, whether you realize it or are subconsciously doing it.
I am one of those genetic freaks who did 100kg the first month I worked out. But then it didn't progesss vry much. Now I can do 160kg which is good but compared to where I started it is only ok.
My advice is to strengthen shoulders to build a stable platform when pushing.
First dude needing an elbow sleeve,wrist wraps and a belt to fail that😂
I eat everything, I train whatever I feel like on the day, I’ve gone from 68kg- 84kg and I’m 11% body fat
I do bench once a week and have gotten massive results so this guys crazy
How much is that in freedom units mate?
His advice is good , although I don't think 100kg is attainable for everyone in 1 year
Try being 6'6 with long arms. I could barely bench 100 pounds for 5 reps when i started. Now after 16 months of consistent training I'm at about 150 pounds for 5.
Not everyone can reach that, especially not quickly. Besides strength, some people may not have good form which will hold them back.
I’ve been training for over a year, tracking my calories and getting enough protein and my bench is mere 85kg at 75kg bodyweight. I’m 16 and I do have a coach. 100kg benchpress for sb my weight is an impressive achievement: 1,33x body weight bench. Realistically that should take people with gifted genetics at least a year, for most 2-3. As somebody without great genetics I do have to work harder than the individual that made that video. Bodyweight can severely impact your bench performance: 100kg bench at 90kg is much less impressive than the one at 70kg.
I benched 100kg when I was 15. What did I benefit from alot of benching? Shoulder pain. So here I am, 32 years old and haven't benched for like 8 years, just because of discomfort in my shoulder while doing it.
I'm 65 [nov 23] saw this and did 110k x 8 reps today. I'll start doing sets, often and see if I get that chest mine is weak looking.

Lol bruh i do almost everything he says you Shouldn't do yet. I'm making progress. A lot of it, I'm Benching more than my body weight.
With Point #2 I disagree I think you should do whatever works for you since there’s no one solution. Whatever exercise you think would be best done next do it.
Guys don’t listen to this guy. Take it at your own pace. You don’t have to hit 100kg in one year. But obviously like he said, stick to a plan and you’ll see progress. Eventually you’ll get there
My best progress on bench came benching only once a week
No, the minimum a man should bench is whatever they're benching now. Being just a bit better than you were yesterday is the only goal
