uneven arms help

VoDKaMarine · Jul 16th 2009, 7:02am

Well, I've noticed that my arms are uneven. I mean, ones not longer than the other but my right is MUCH stronger than my left, and my right has a bigger bicep lump than my left, waaaaaay bigger. Like, seriously my right is like 1.25 times bigger than my left. Any help on this? I got dumbbells and a pull up bar to work with.

I know people who are like that,
it's okay

me left bicep is a lot bigger then my right bicep, and my arms are uneven too.

Seems normal to me.

Do curls with the left more then the right - just to try and catch up...

I agree with Mike. Just concentrate more on left hand. For example if you are lifting dumb bells on right for 5 times try to lift 10 times with the left. Try to use your left hand instead of using right hand in your day to day life.

But for God's sake please don't go for any surgery or medication. You are best and handsome as you are!!

Try jacking off with your left hand from now on.

Before increasing the weights anymore, try lightening up the load and focusing on TECHNIQUE rather than raw power to push through the lifts. Make sure when both arms are lifting that they are equal in terms of speed, height, and angle. For example you see most people do bench press and one side is heavily lopsided and their "weak" arm is never able to get a full range of motion with the lifting. Eventually it will become a big problem.

lol at the end part

I was just curiuos as how to make it better, and hoping that it wasn't only me. I'm relieved that I am not the only one that uses their favored hand more than the other.

I haven't found Ms right yet, so I use the left.

Thank you, I have just started to lift and I've been focusing on that.

And to everyone else, thank you for your great answers!!!

Much appreciated.

Don't concentrate on doing the left over the right. There's really no sense in stopping or slowing the gains you're getting on your right arm just to let the other catch up. You should always try to maximize your overall strength gain.

It's perfectly natural to have one arm stronger than the other. Just do equal number of reps on each side, every time, to failure and both arms will get stronger. One may still end up bigger than the other, but like I said that's natural.

It's normal for your dominant hand/arm to be stronger than the non-dominant one. If it's really bothering you just do a little more weight training with that arm.

This definitely

JesseRider23 · Jul 17th 2009, 11:29pm

well i'd reccomend doing a lot of compound lifts with barbells, but if all you have are dumbbells, do as many lifts as you can with your right arm as you can for your left. It won't help to even it out completely, but it will help. Do you have access to a gym/barbells? Pullup bars are good. Do some chinups and pullups on it. Just worry about overall strength for now. Make sure your left arm isn't doing more work than your right with the DBs.

most people are like that

Man, how did you get so smart at what, sixteen? It took me years to learn slightly defective chicks are the way to go. I once went out with this girl with a baby arm, insane in the sack, plus when she grabbed my dick with her little hand it looked gigantic.

Sharxbyte · Mar 29th 2010, 7:37am

totally normal. if t bugs you, work on left handed single arm pushups, and dumbells and pullups. itl take work, cause you obviously use your right arm a bunch more

Dim · Mar 29th 2010, 11:19am

Dude, when i read the title i thought your arm was longer than the other.. -.-' Anyway, don't worry about your "problem", it's normal and logical. Try working out your left arm more than the right one and see the results for yourself.

ROFL. Arms will be even in no time!

But seriously, dont seat it. Change your exercise habits to work more twords your left arm, and dont worry about it too much.

I'm exactly the same as you man, its pretty normal, infact I dont think I have ever met a guy who didnt have one arm have more muscle then the other, its just that on some people its more noticeable.

And im sorry, but I have to throw this in. When anyone else say the title of this topic, did it remind them of the "But I've got such tiny hands" burger king commercial?

sunnnycal · Mar 30th 2010, 1:53am
