at the age of 13 my 1 rep max was 135. so yes your doing good. keep it up too, you'll be cut by the time your 15 if you do it right. dont stop working out like i did! or you'll regret it!
first day with no buds, 11/17, need a new job. 1 down 13 to go.

WOW you are 13 and weighing 150pounds, you are pretty big. I am 13 also I can bench around 105 and If I am really into it sometimes but rarely i can make one rep with a 110. Howver I only weigh like 97pounds. But I really dont bench that much so I might not be as good as someone who practices it alot.

All i'm sayin is i'm 13 (turning 14 tomorrow) and have benched 155, going for 165 tomorrow before I turn 14. But yah 150 is pretty good (very good). If you said your big though I wouldn't call it good if your 155+ lb. unless your really tall.

I'm not saying his bench isn't impressive because it's good but there are queit a few (not like a million but a fair ammount) of kids that are 13 benching 95-135 depending on how far into the age of being 13 they are a year at that age makes a HUGE difference so alot depends on if you just turned 13 or are closer to 14 imo.

"LSU40" - first off i would like to see proof  by video.
 
And let me point out i said CHANCES are they are lying, i didn't say its impossible for someone to bench over 150 at age 13, especially someone who is 150+. I mean if some 220 lb fat 13 year old came on here i'd believe they could bench 150. 
 
I mean for example i was benching 140 at 13 but
A) I was 120 lbs.
B) I did little workouts all the time with my dad, i mean nothing serious and scheduled that you would see me doing now, but i'd do bench press and little dumbbell exercises 2 maybe 3 times a week.

That is funny I think at 13 I was like 65 lbs. I wasn't even 120 until I was like 17. I could bench 100 on my crappy concrete weight set, so dunno how accurate that is, but a better record at 14 was 88 pushups without any pause in a row.

what Isu40 said is not entirely impossible. For example, we have a 14 year old on our squad, who was 13 like 5 months ago, who benches 260 and squats 330. AND, he ony weighs 160, which is pretty good. i'll attempt to brinf in video proof next time we're working out.

And BTW, that's pretty good for 13. I just turned 14, so not much of a mentor on this subject, but when I was 13 my 1RM was 95, now its 115 when I'm 14.
