For teens, how much do you bench and how long have you been training?
I'm amazed at how a 14-16 yr old can bench so much..

I've been training off and on for the past 4 years, but I've been training right now for 9 months straight.
I can only bench 180 but that's bound to go about 20lbs over the next few weeks. I neglected my chest for the first year and a half, and I've made plenty of mistakes since then. I think I've got it down now, so I should be increasing my bench a lot more now.

I've been lifting on and off since like November 2003 when I was 16, so a little over a year ago. I'm 18 now and have only started working out right with an actual routine about 3 months ago. I can bench around 160 lbs and I'm like 144-145 lbs myself.

I've been lifting for 5 years (started at 14). I was the only person in the 1200+lb club on the football team under 200lbs. Nothing but creatine and protein for me back then. Once I got a good foundation my bench, squat, and deadlift skyrocketed in a short period of time. I was a coach last year for the local 7th & 8th grade team. One of the kids was pretty strong for his age (14 and benching 130 lbs). He is now benching over 160lbs with only protein as a supplement. That is a great gain for someone his age and size.
Hard work + eating right = good gains

my body has changed alot since these 7 months so im looking forward to next year 
Right there is the mindset a lot of people need. Lose confidence in yourself and have no goals, you will never see results. Good luck to you!

Hypnotised to realise that this surprise will end in demise in front of your eyes. Shining with lies you sent your spies, spat your alibies and your words rotted, rotted and attracted flies. Your boy cries but you proceed to fratenise with those baby blue eyes, eyes like the sky you pleaded for ties. Your stomach cries, and you envisionise a plate full of fries. Lord they are hot though, don't touch, I advise. But you are burned, and penalised, of course overdramatise and you get the prize. I am that boy baby girl and now I will end your 9 lives.
