Symmetry..!!

[Vik]

my right bicep is vascular and feels a lot more fuller than my left

how do i go about gaining better symmetry..do i completely stop training the right..?

Yes, let your right bicep dwindle into a pathetic resemblance of your weaker limb.

[Vik]

ok fair enough..

but should i increase the reps on my left side or will it naturally catch up eventually..?

[Papa Lazarou]

Umm.... unless you're joking I don't think you'll get very nice answers.

People here seem to look down on the biceps, because... well they really aren't that useful. Biceps are not really built for strength. Their attachment points give them leverage for speed not strength and they're pretty small.

I'm not qualified to answer the actual question but I guess increasing hypertrophy-aimed training of the left would work =p
Pretty poor solution though.

[Bboy_Jon]

my right penis is bigger than the other...

[compleks]

Train both sides with even weight, reps, sets and there shouldn't be a problem.

Maybe look at doing more unilateral bicep work, so that you aren't cheating and letting your right side take more of the load.

[chicanerous]

If the strength is the same, live with it. If the strength isn't the same, fix it with unilateral work by prioritizing the weak side and never doing more reps than with it with the strong side. If one side is more vascular, more "toned," or more "cut," this just means your body stores less fat on that side or that your veins are larger or more developed in that one arm, which is more or less genetic, but you could turn to PLASMAVOL.

[Syvo]

My right testicle hangs lower than my left. WHAT THE FUCK SHOULD I DO SHIT

[Sam H]

Speaking of symmetry, I have more veins on my right arm than on my left. :eh:

[Syvo]

Actually you have more VISIBLE veins in your right arm.

[shreddakj]

I have lots of veins sticking out all over both my arms, but they are in different places to each other.

[anfeyd]

My house smells like french toast.

[Rahf]

My house smells like french toast.

These two are equally relevant. Good job Anfeyd. *backpat*

[Steve]

Train both sides with even weight, reps, sets and there shouldn't be a problem.

Except, there will be, because his right bicep is bigger now and it will still be bigger when he works them both the same

[hamelkarl]

Yes, you could increase the reps on your left side, but don't forget that it's a small muscle size. It's not like if it was a leg! I have seen bodybuilders work more on a side because this one was not the same size or didn't have the same power. Yes, you can work more to make it looks like the other if it's for the symmetry thing (grow), but if it's only to cut the fat from one side you shall not. You can't say to your arm to have the same percentage of fat than the other, it's a total shape that you will modify.

[Robo]

Shouldn't 'Getting Bigger' be your first goal? =P How big are you anyway (OP)? There's no rush in gaining symmetry when there's not much to see anyway.

178-180cm at 165 lbs.. not much fat (except for my abdominal area :p)

[Robo]

That doesn't tell me much. Perhaps posting some pictures would be helpful? I know three people (including myself) who weigh in somewhere around 165-170 lbs and stand up to a height of 175-180 (approximately), and our physical appearances are rather different from eachother.

[Dragonic MiKe]

My biceps are identical.

[Ashtar]

Maybe start off with your weaker/smaller limb so it gets most of your focus, and then just match whatever you do with it with the other one. This is referring to unilateral stuff.

[compleks]

Except, there will be, because his right bicep is bigger now and it will still be bigger when he works them both the same
But his right bicep is presumably stronger than his left, so working them with the same weight should balance out any indifference over time.

[thereid]

Masturbate with the other hand.

[Sam H]

Hahaha. My right quads are bigger than my left, but my left calf is bigger than my right. Right lat bigger than my left (or it could just be some weird growth thing), right pec bigger than my left. Right eye slightly smaller than my left (unrelated).

[hamelkarl]

dude your Fuckt!

[Vincent_Lee]

dude, waht teh hell, You always have a "dominant" side of your body, it is usualy the same as the dominant part of your brain...

oh and try training in a symmetrical way, such as doing the same thing with both your arms/legs/ dicks?/balls or whatever, like do push-ups instead of weight liftingor whatever..

[anfeyd]

This really makes no sense.

[compleks]

This really makes no sense.
The internet is a privilege which should be earned.

[Kitosho]

Just work the stronger side, if it's already strong might as well just keep going until you have just one massively strong limb

[Karlnold]

ha ha, "Crab-Boy"

This thread should have been closed after Shengoikee's reply, it was more than sufficient.

[Antoine]

my right bicep is vascular and feels a lot more fuller than my left

how do i go about gaining better symmetry..do i completely stop training the right..?

do 1-2 extra sets with your weaker arm

[hamelkarl]

Antoine, could he just do more extra reps on the weaker parts for all the sets to replace the 1-2 sets???

barbell curls lol.

[Honken]

Why?

And also, you shouldn't really be able to do extra reps unless you're warming up.

[hamelkarl]

Hahaha! sorry I realize how stupid my question was!

[Chase]

Masterbate w/ left arm

[tepanna]

Wouldn't worry about if your skinny, it's just the results of using one arm more than the other in daily life. It'll even out when you get buffer. If you're already kinda big and been lifting weights for a long time, you're screwed :eh:

[Scott]

Guys I can onearmbarbellcleanandjerkwhileblindfoldedstandingo naswissballandbeingpeltedwithrocks 183.567 lbs with my right arm but my left arm can only do 154.329, why is that? How can I fix it?

Stand on the other leg silly!

This is actually a pretty cool idea.
