Mike_d85 Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 I'm not sure if this is something that should concern me or not, but I seem to one noticeably larger peck. The left one if it makes any difference. Is this just an uneven bench and I should be doing some dumbbell work to even myself out? I noticed it sometime last week and figured I must have strained it a little in the gym and it would go down. It isn't. I look normal in office clothing (a button up shirt), but I can tell in a t-shirt and my wife sees it since I pointed it out to her so it's not just in my head. I don't know if it's a sign I'm screwing up something in my workouts or something else. It looks healthy (not like a growth or lump) and it's doesn't hurt (other than workout soreness). To be honest I'd like the other to swell a bit to match rather than um... deflate? Quote My Battle Log I'm on Strava for my running now. Check out Kick! too.

Mike_d85 Posted March 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 A thought struck me last night during my run: Could it be because I carry water in my left hand when I run? It's not much weight, but arms pumping might work the front shoulder and upper pectoral. Quote My Battle Log I'm on Strava for my running now. Check out Kick! too.

Polaris Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 It's possible. I had a coworker whose left arm had more muscle than the right one, even though she was right-handed; turns out she always carries her cashbox with her left arm. I've also been told my left thigh seems more muscular than the right one (and also think it might be a little bigger), which I'm blaming on the fact that I tend to use it as my supporting leg when I kick, because I have better aim with the right one.

What are you kicking? That seems weird for a sport or martial art where you'd be applying a lot of force with your kick. Quote My Battle Log I'm on Strava for my running now. Check out Kick! too.

PixieKitten Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 First of all, welcome to the girl's problem of having one boob bigger than the other! It's annoying as hell! Second, it could well be the water. carry it with your other hand for a few weeks and see if it makes a difference. 1 Quote Level 9 Pixie I may not be the strongest, the fastest, or the bravest.

I did something else, I invested in a camelback for my long runs. My pecks are now even, but that might also be because I tweaked my back and haven't been able to go to the weight room. I might start running with weights though. I could get into having giant pecks. Maybe I can learn to bounce my man-boobs in time to music. 1 Quote My Battle Log I'm on Strava for my running now.
