If you took 100 random guys 18-50 years off the street, how many could bench 225 lbs?

I'd say maybe 3-5

Out of the at least 100 guys I know at least a dozen I would say.
Julian Thomas
Around 70
225lbs is not a lot of weight. I could bench press almost 250lbs when I first started going to the gym when i was 13
William Walker
None. You guys don't know what the average guy is now a days
Adam Young
Bullfuckingshit
Logan Adams
maybe 1 if you're lucky
most guys at the gym don't bench 225
and most guys don't go to the gym
Ryan Barnes
Sorry to hear you live in a libtard area.
In my rural area I'd say 80 of the normal sized men would press 225 without much trouble
Blake Sanchez
Idk about boomers but average guy at my uni gym does 2-2.5 plates for reps.., obviously selection bias but still, lot of young guys are working out now so I’d say at least 70-85 if you limit it to 18-25
Landon Torres
First time in a gym when my buddy brought me i maxed out 245 and a lot of guys are bigger than me. Like 20/100 i bet
Dylan Gray
When you weigh 400 pounds 225 isn’t that much.
Isaiah Mitchell

LA streets, probably 1 in 10. Meth City, Kentucky probably 9 in 10 and the 10th already sold the plates for more meth

>obviously selection bias but still
The fuck? You can't just acknowledge the major flaw in your argument and then carry on as if it doesn't exist.

>most guys at my gym don't bench 225
if we're talking about a 1rm, probably more than you think cause most of the guys you see working with 185-215 can hit 225 for 1, they just don't max out very often
Bentley Ortiz
yeah but the point is lots of people in that age range work out… which means that a decent amount of them can rep 2 plates
Carson Ramirez
if you’re a male that can’t bench 225 I hope you know I have to fight back serious urges not to rape your low t ass in public

A lot of young guys work out, but not even a majority of them.
And of the minority that go to the gym, the majority of them can't bench 225.
Here's data for the UK
idsmedia.co.uk
10. 3 million regular gym users. More than half female, but let's me generous and say 5 million British men.
30% of them are in the 18-35 bracket, or 1.5 million.
Approx 25% of the UK population is aged 18-35. Of the roughly 67 million people in the UK, 49% are men. Half of 67 million is 33.5 million. 25% of 33.5 million is 8. 25 million.
So in the UK, around 1.5 million of the 8.25 million 18-35 year old men use the gym, giving a figure of around 18%.
I used rough figures and it will vary here and there by country and region, but it's probably a fair estimate of most western nations that 15-20% of young men go to the gym. Whichever way you cut it that's a long way short of 75-80%
Angel Ward
Well most guys look like this nowadays so you tell me

So at the upper end of the range, maybe 20% of younger guys work out regularly. Now what percentage of those guys that regularly work out can bench 2pl8?
Idk about your gyms but I'd say at the gyms I go to, 1/4 guys look like they bench 2pl8 for sets, 1/4 for reps, 1/4 might get a single rep if the stars are aligned, and the other 1/4 aren't there yet.
Brandon Perez
i would say no more than 5% work out regularly
