Feel dumb asking this... but

How heavy is the bar for bench? 40 pounds?

So if I'm doing a 45 pound plate on each side how much am I benching? 130 pounds?
 
If it's an olympic bar it's most likely 45 lbs (there are a few 35 lbs around though). I think standard bars are 25 lbs

Most gyms have olympic bars though, so 45lbs is a safe bet.
 
Hi,

The staff at your gym should be able to tell you which bars they have and I am sure they will be glad to tell you if you ask :)

Goodluck
