Honestly your strength level won't peak until your 30's, so don't worry about what you can do now. You should focus on a whole body workout using body weight, barbell and dumbbells. If you only workout on the bench you will not develop balanced strength and increase your chance for injury.

13 year olds should primarily focus on cardiovascular activities--since weight lifting has been scientifically proven to stunt growth at such a young age...
furthermore, many youngsters dont have the proper training or the right form to lift correctly--and may actually injure themselves
plus, bench pressing depends on your body type--whether you are lanky or compact can allow you to bench less or more, etc
