bdave181 -> even arms (Apr. 18 2008 10:24:41)

my left bicep is slightly smaller than right, what is the best way to even them out?



si1990 -> RE: even arms (Apr. 18 2008 10:27:59)

dumbell curls maybe as neither arm will beable to compensate for the other as can sometimes happen with bb/ez curls.



Raskolnikov -> RE: even arms (Apr. 18 2008 13:55:45)

^as above, using dumbbells will help stop the stronger arm over-compensating for the other one

It's quite common though for one to be slightly bigger than the other and I suspect it's not noticeable to anyone else

I've been training for years and have never been able to rectify symmetry issues.



carl19 -> RE: even arms (Apr. 18 2008 16:28:17)

even before i weight trained i had a much nicer shape to my left bicep and it was stronger on the dunbells when i started training.

it has never evened out

it is possible i may have damaged the right one as a child which led to some retarted growth until it healed

firstly hello, havent posted in ages due to various reasons, so this is like a second christening!
when i was fairly new on the site i posted the same q. as above dumbells are good for ensuring each arm gets the same resistance, but the main thing is to make sure you train themevenly. dont try to do extra work on one arm or you may make things worse...
i think a lot of its down to genetics, also check your chest and delts, are hey symmetrical? if you look at it long enough you will see imbalances.
basically what im saying is your not going to be perfectly even from one side to the other, the biggest problem is the fact that your looking for the difference now, and if your looking for it your going to find it
question, is one arm stronger than the other? if so how much by?
