Biceps imbalance?

[jonnyboy613]

I noticed yesterday that my right bicep is more round and normal looking than the left which is more "straight" and longer. I'm guessing the right bicep is carrying more muscle, so how I can I level up the left with the right? Do extra DB curls with the left arm?

Thnx

I have one forearm bigger then the other.

[rockguitarist89]

I have a bicep that is shaped different than my other, therefore they are slightly uneven.

And yes, as guy avove me stated, one forearm is bigger than the other.

[liftstrong101]

usually your dominant side will always be a little bigger/stronger just because you have been using it more than your other side your whole life.

[BandApart]

could just be the genetic shape...probably is.


focus on unilateral(1 armed) movements though, if u think one side is actually larger.

[Bananahammock]

I'm right handed and my left arm is bigger and stronger than my right arm.

Just even it out with more reps on the one hand that the other.

nobody is 100 even..but if there is a large difference then ya u should add in some on arm cable stuff.big fan of overhead one arm cable ext ( like u would with the db)

Your not sure why? The next type you fap think about how instense that workout is and how many times you've done it.

[jonnyboy613]

Hmm k thnx will do extra reps for left arm and see what progress is made

[Weirdbeard]

Lots of things you can do, just put more strain on the weaker bicep than the stronger.

My left arm is half an inch bigger than my right arm. When doing tricep/bicep exercises I use dumbbells always starting with the weaker arm (right). When that fails I do the last rep on my left arm, thus training my right arm 'harder' than the left.

[mattdclxvi]

right arm use to be alotbigger then my left i just been doing the same amount of reps even if i have to cheat with my left and due to my right arm being stronger it caught up pretty quick as it was put under more stress?

dno if thats just me but now there the same size.

DO NOT do extra curls with one arm. Everyone has imbalances and most are hardly noticeable. Im sure you are the same way as well. gradually they will become more proportionate if you keep training them.

uhh....Can u explain the it will become more proportionate if you keep training them part?

I noticed just yesterday, that my right bicep is leveling out more similar to how the left is. It's still a little larger, but two days after pullups/chinups it seems to not tower over the left bicep as much now. It was huge just two days ago, including weeks before that.

[Blindead]

My right bicep is much larger and defined than my left. My right pec is also bigger. My left tricep is bigger than my right. I think it's due to evening out on bench to make up for my left pec.

I've really gotta do some isolation stuff to work on this sometime.

[mwcharger]

if you use dumbbells over time your muscular imbalance will equal out cause both arms have to lift the same load. jus give it time

[prospa7]

i guess if u want equal biceps, just keep doing compound exercises where both biceps are involved equally, ie pull-ups, push-ups

biceps act as stabilizers......if you ever do push ups then started biceps curling, you'll know what i'm talking about

so by your logic doing squats would give you a six pack
fail\

what are you talking about? I merely gave a simple suggestion of an exercise that involves using the biceps. I did not say to what EXTENT the exercise was going to affect the muscle. However, you ASSUMED yourself that the exercise was suppose to be the magic pill to success. Clearly some people here failed the SATs or is going to fail with this kind of reasoning skill, lol

promise you, the OP weighs less than 160lbs and both his biceps together weight less than an 1lb

Thnx

my right bicep is different then my left due to baseball, constantly throwing the ball caused some damage
