I live in Asia and have been going to the gym here for about 2 years. Not a lot of big meatheads here, most of the guys at the gym are wiry, so don't seem to lift a lot. I'm just curious how I compare to your average gym guy back in Canada.
I usually do 40 kg plus the bar so 60kg?..I weigh 75 kg.

As a person that worked-out regularly in my 20's , almost none in my 30's, and just getting back to it in my 40's, don't worry about what other people think is respectable. It's just an easy way to get discouraged and/or injured. Train for the results you want to see (mass, weight-loss, strength), but comparing yourself to a stranger can be counter-productive.
That being said, you're not far from benching your own body weight. That's pretty impressive.
