If you picked 100 random guys 18-50 years off the street, how many could bench 235 pounds?

*225 pounds

Exactly 0

5

are we in America or

maybe 15?

Any western country, America, Europoors, Aus/Nz

0 considering that even people that go to the gym probably don't do it for strength training

Probably like half of them

>Itt: weak cope

Jokes on you, I'm picking them off a street on an army base just outside the base gym at night.
So like, 6, maybe.

0.

You would need to pick 1000 random men off the street to even have a chance at registering a 1. You guys have no clue how unfit the untrained human is.

Right? I worked in an office with about 1,000 other people and I never saw anyone else who looked like they had ever picked up a weight. Average person probably can't bench much more than the bar.

40-50 kilos (i did 50 first try, was the strungest)

100 guys, of which 20 lift weights, 10 are good at it, 5 are intermediate to advanced level. 235 is 2-plates plus a 5 on each side... Of the 5 who are relatively fit, I'd wager 4 of them could push 235. The 5th did Starting Strength.

235 was a typo, I meant 225

Really depends, the ratio should carry from nation to nation

Perhaps 5

Most guys that claim that can lift more than 100kg are full of shit, I've called numerous gym people out on that.

100 kg is 225 kg
I can lift about 110 I know probably 3 other dudes who can.

100 kg is 225 lbs

For context Im 6 ft with a weirdly over developed 6 pack so go figure.

For 1 rep?

Yep

Western Europe? One of your lucky.

>go to China
>pick 100 random chinks off the street
>they're all manlets
>this guarantees god tier bench
>100% success rate

With good form?
I'd say one or two
Around 40 would say they used to but are more focussed on their career now

Maybe 1 if you're lucky, even most gym goers don't reach 235.

Valid point, every guy I'm referring to myself included lifts regularly.

20% of male pupulation lifting is a very high estimate. I personally dont know any other person in the cycle of people I talk to atleast once every 6 months who goes to the gym atleast 2 times a week.
