You should be able to bench your body weight give or take 20lbs or so. If he does 135 thats pretty good. Proper form is the key..... make sure hes doing it correctly.


Not at 13-14, especially initially. Most kids are way too wobbly with the bar to come near their body weight. And form is absolutely paramount.

Exactly, if he's doing it right and not dropping on himself then that's decent enough for first starting out.
