Question

I have a question, Im wondering what the average bench, squat, and deadlift are as a 16 year old male I just wanna see if I reach the average. I have football weights going on rn and I have only been working out for almost a year now and it has changed my life. So if anyone has any answers please let me know

Answer 1

for 1.2-1.5x bodyweight; squats and deadlifts often target 1.1-1.9x bodyweight, with deadlifts usually being the heaviest, followed by squats, then bench press, focusing on good form before heavy weight.

Answer 2

but like I need numbers like what's the average for 16

Answer 3

good starting goals are around bodyweight for bench press (e.g., 135 lbs) and squat (e.g., 135-220 lbs), with deadlifts often starting at bodyweight (135 lbs) and progressing to 1.35x bodyweight or more as a novice

Answer 4

so I had my maxes today for football and for bench I did 115, and I suck at squat so I did 5 reps of 115, and for deadlift I did 210. Do you think that is a good spot for only working out for almost a year?

Answer 5

Yes, those are considered to be a good spot for someone who has only been working out for almost a year, especially as a beginner in high school football.

Answer 6

I just started football last year and it has been something that has changed my life tbh, lost 60 pounds have gained a lot of muscle, but I look at others my age throughout my senior year going into my senior year and I see them doing way more than me probably because they have been doing this since freshman year, but still makes me look bad so I just wanted to make sure
