This might seem really silly, but it is a question I have EACH workout!!!
I AM LEFT handed, only when I write on paper. Otherwise, I do most of everything else with my right hand or I change off and on.
When I perform biceps curls, Arnold presses, Cross body triceps kickbacks, etc....ALL upper body moves....my left arm gives out WAY before my right arm.
In fact, with almost all upper body weight lifting, my right arm can do 10 reps to my left arm's 6 reps. I am using the same weights for both.
My question is this.......
Should my right side WAIT for my left side to get stronger before I INCREASE my weight????? Why should the right side be "bored" or not make any strength or size gains since it is not being as challenged as the left?
I don't use a barbell, only dumbbells. I feel like my left side gets the BURN REALLY GOOD, after a workout, and my right side feels only slightly worked. Should I do more reps on the right side or can I increase the weight on the right side BEFORE the left?
I can use 12 pounds for my biceps on the right and 8-10lbs for the left or is that actually BAD in this situation???
PLEASE, someone with experience help me!! This is a question that I have each day and want to be doing the right thing. Thanks!!!
