The latest trailer I saw had him flipping around like Yoda taking down a Quinjet with this bare hands.... I got a little worried at that point, like WTF is all this CG? I'm guessing it didn't detract from the movie too much. I know Chris Evans trained in parkour for the role, I just hope the CG isn't overboard. That ppl can aspire to do the things that Cap does is the best thing about his character to me...

here is just the part about his strength:



Peak Human Strength: Rogers' physical strength is enhanced to the very peak of human potential. As a result, he is as physically strong as a human being can be without being classified as superhuman. Captain America had been seen bench pressing 544 kg/1,200 lbs which is consistent with his strength level, as benching is easier than military press lifting. This strength also extends to his legs, enabling him to leap 6mt/20ft out in a single bound and 10ft/3 meters into the air without a running start. He can snap steel handcuffs and chains, and is capable of breaking through wooden walls and steel doors with a single kick

Yeah that is a fair description of what he's able to do in the movie. Again, don't want to spoil the movie but it's not like he has super healing abilities like Wolverine or anything.
