Powers
The Super-Soldier Serum metabolized and enhanced all of Rogers's bodily functions to the peak of human potential. Dr. Reinstein described this potential as being the next step in human evolution, while still remaining completely human.
Artificially Enhanced Physiology: Rogers in the mainstream Marvel Universe has no superhuman powers, although as a result of the Super-Soldier serum, he is transformed from a frail young man into a "perfect" specimen of human development and conditioning. Captain America is as intelligent, strong, fast, agile, and durable as it is possible for a human being to be without being considered superhuman.[5]
Peak Human Strength: Captain America's physical strength is enhanced to the very peak of human potential, allowing him to military press around 800 pounds. See "Strength" below.
Peak Human Speed: Captain American can easily run at a speed of approximately 30 miles per hour, and has run a mile in little over a minute (almost 60 mph) when under duress.
Peak Human Agility: Captain America's agility is superior to that of any Olympic athlete that has ever competed.
Peak Human Stamina: Captain America's body eliminates the excessive build-up of fatigue-producing poisons in his muscles, granting him phenomenal endurance. He can exert himself at peak capacity for an hour without rest before showing any signs of fatigue.
Peak Human Durability: Captain America's ability to resist or recover from injury and disease are superior to those of ordinary humans. This explains how he has survived the physical punishment during his career. [6]
Peak Human Metabolism: Captain America's enhanced metabolism allows him to heal faster than normal when recovering from injury. Gunshot wounds and broken limbs heal within days, and lesser injuries can heal in just a few hours. This metabolism also renders him virtually immune to most poisons, including intoxication by consuming alcohol.
Peak Human Mental Process: Captain America's mental performance has been greatly enhanced, allowing his mind to operate in the most efficient and rapid manner possible. One manifestation of this is his tactical genius; the ability to quickly process multiple information streams (e.g., threat assessment) and rapidly respond to changing tactical situations.
Peak Human Reflexes: Captain America possesses reaction time superior to any Olympic athlete that has ever competed.
Peak Human Perception: Captain America has exceptionally keen eyesight and hearing. [7] Captain America once stated that he is able to dodge bullets because he "sees faster than them"[8]
Abilities
Master Martial Artist: Captain America has mastered the martial arts of American-style boxing, jujitsu, aikido, and judo, and has combined these disciplines with his exceptional acrobatic talents to create his own unique hand-to-hand style of combat. He has also shown skill in and knowledge of a number of other martial arts, even pressure point fighting. He engages in a daily regimen of rigorous exercise (including aerobics, weight lifting, gymnastics, and simulated combat) to keep himself in peak condition, and has often defeated opponents whose size, strength, or other powers greatly exceeded his own. Captain America is one of the finest human combatants Earth has ever known.
Master Shield Fighter: Captain America's years of training and experience with his unique shield, as well as its physical properties, allow him to accomplish mind-boggling feats with the item. Aside from bashing foes with it and blocking incoming attacks, Cap is able to throw the shield with nearly perfect aim. He is able to hit multiple targets with the same throw by means of ricochet, and can even achieve a boomerang-like return effect with it, allowing him to strike enemies from behind or retrieve the shield without objects to ricochet from.
Master Tactician: Captain America is an accomplished strategist. He is widely considered one of, if not the greatest tacticians on the planet both on and off the battlefield. He is able to formulate battle strategies and his brilliant tactical sense allows him to just as quickly alter any strategy of plan to fit the need of the situation change. When Scarlet Witch described Captain America as a leader she simply stated “You’re just the best there is.” During Secret Wars the scientific genius Reed Richards asserted," No one could have directed there group better then Captain America," as Ironman and the others agreed. This of course is coming from brilliant tacticians that are Tony Starks and Reed Richards, when they are commanding there own teams.
Multi-lingual: He's fluent in Russian, German, Japanese and possibly other languages. Operational equipment: He's a phenomenal pilot and is also versed in many if not all Military, Shield, or the Avengers equipment.
Strength level
Captain America is as physically strong as a human can potentially be in the Marvel Universe without being considered superhuman, and can lift over his head approximately 800 lbs as listed in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe. In the books of The Invaders or CA Vol 4 #17 it is noted that he is as strong as ten men.
Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe #2 (1983). Captain America has been seen bench pressing 1,100 lbs. This is reasonable given that Marvel estimates strength level by amount of weight held over the head. A person can generally military press about 2/3 of the maximum weight they are capable of lifting on the bench press. In Captain America's case, this would make his maximum bench weight about 1,200 lbs. Thus, this is consistent with the 800lb strength rating listed above.
