A member asked:

If i weigh 250lbs about how much should i be able to lift? im working out and i can only bench 175lbs thats weak for a guy my size. im 5'9 in height

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Keep working: The key is to hit the gym hard. A respectable gym guy can bench his weight; most non-fitness guys of course can't. Eat sensibly, get used to being good-sore ; good-hungry, work your pecs 3x/week ten sets of three reps maximum, consider creatine but shun illegal steroids. You'll get what you want. Glad you're doing this.
