Are you left-handed?
Do more work with your left side?

[lucamabob]

I use to have the same problem with my abs. But all I can say is be consistent with both sides of your body, same reps/sets/weight. It seemed to solve my problem.

Right or left handed? This is not unusual, my body is larger on the left side but I am the only one who notices. I think it is because I am right handed and my right hand is stronger. My left hand has to work harder than my right to keep up so i guess the muscle has just grown a bit better. No big deal and if you are already using dumbells there isn't a whole lot you can do.

I wouldn't use more on one side either. I guess you could just focus on your right ride by really squeezing at the top of the lift and feeling a stretch at the bottom.

[Mase64]

nope im right handed forgot to state that

and my GF said somthing so have my friends and my mom said something to me today..lol

[TRAZ]

Yeah...side strength and size differences are common. I am left-handed, but I play all sports right-handed (football, baseball, basketball, bowling, pool, tennis, golf) and play musical instruments right handed. All I do is write with my left hand. Even with all this going for my right side, my left arm is just bigger.....

[Mase64]

i seeee mmm

[travis8798]

no one is completely symmetrical, its physically impossible. You are a weird case, usually, your dominant hand/side is the bigger side. I am right handed and the muscles on the right side of my body tend to be bigger, I think now some of the muscles on my left are bigger due to over-correcting that problem.

[Mase64]

indeed iam weird hahahaa

[thunder10]

i wouldn't worry, my left arm is noticeably bigger then my right and i am right handed. Although i do feel better now knowing more people are like me.

Same here im right handed yet my left arm is bigger.

[SICKOFITALL]

Could also be because of bad form when lifting. If you are signifigantly different on one side, check your form when lifting and make sure you are doing it properly.

[Mase64]

nope i blieve my form is ok. i lok in the mirror when im doing incline flys or whatever it may be. and u can see my right tit is smaller lol its annoying i dont know i hate it

funny you say that...lately i've noticed its my right side a little bigger than left...it pisses me off too..i'm a female btw...i dont think anyone else would notice....its not like i walk around flexed....i wish i could though....lol

i guess i am a lot stronger on the right side...

[Mase64]

hahaha yea its annoying cuz u can actually notice mine

[vikings8084]

i have the same problem with my pecs too. I am right handed and my right is bigger, but my left is smaller but more defined.

[martydup]

Well i a relief in a way to see i am not the only one with that problem.I am right handed, but my left pec is a little bigger than my right one.My left one used to be a lot more bigger, but since i have stop doing dumbell flys to focus more on flat bench press, the right one has catched up and the difference is only a little noticible.

I am sure it was because my form wasen't good with the dumbell flys.I tough it was ok, until i looked at myslef in a mirror while i was doing it.I would suggest doing them on a pec deck instead, you can't have a bad form with that.Also, i would strongly recommend doing barbell bench instead of dumbell.Yes dumbell are harder and you can stretch more, but barbell is easier to have perfect form IMO.I don't even put the pins on each end when bench pressing ,i keep looking at the bar and it goes up and down almost like if i was on a smith machine.

bump on that

[mo3taz]

i had the same problem and this is because the side you dont use a lot(the left side) contain more fat than the other wich helps the muscles to grow more
