Uneven arms!!help!!

strongman72 · 12-10-2005, 09:43 PM

My arms are completely uneven.My left arm is bigger, stronger, and more cut than my right.I don't train one ore than the other its just the way it is.It's kind of bothering me.Should I just do a few more reps on my right than I do on my left?

Do some dumbell exercises (db bench, db curls etc...) and the weak one will eventually catch up

in my honest opinion, you should continue to train both arms evenly....my left arm used to be weaker, but ive trained them evenly and its catching up on its own....it will even itself out in time

My left arm is smaller than my right, and it also doesn't look as good... keep hitting them both hard, and keep eating... they will catch up eventually.

I sure hope so!For me it's kind of embarassing and it's a little depressing but i'll keep working hard and see what happens.

How much difference in size is there?

I'm left handed but my right arm is bigger than my left one. Having a small size difference isn't that unusual.
