People overrate how strong the average person is.
135 isn’t anything impressive in the gym — but that’s among people who generally train consistently.
But among the national population? I don’t think even half could bench that.
It’s like asking could the average person run an 8 minute mile. Yeah it’s not impressive or anything. But the AVERAGE person would be lucky to do it in 10-12 mins.
Breh i’ve told so many people this
If you can put up reps of 135, you’re outperforming the average person in general population by a big amount.
135 is genuinely a lot of weight but people, especially folks in the gym regularly, dont think it is.
