This question is not specific since teenagers experience rapid growth from one year to the next, but I'll try to break it down (keep in mind a boy's own body weight is also a factor). For most males, thirteen is a critical age of bone growth and so muscle doesn't usually come as fast. A nice bench max (one repitition lift) would be around 80, though average may be as low as 65. Fourteen to fifteen, the numbers will jump. 105-120 represents a solid max. From then on, the disaparity between those who work out and those who don't increases. In later high school years, a typical non-lifter may max at 160lbs, while a lifter might take 200lbs before he falls. Using a number scale, start off at 100 at fourteen and add 12-15 lbs per year until nineteen. That range is about average for most males in their teenage years. Typically, if a male can bench max 100% of their weight, they are in good shape...Addendum: I am 20 and I bench 260 (I weigh 145).
