Pectoral muscles a large a small how to do left and right pectoral muscle asymmetry how to practice

April 22, 2023
Having full pectoral muscles is more important than any muscle, but unreasonable training and habits may cause your pectoral muscles to be inconsistent in size, so how do we need to deal with such problems?

Reasons for inconsistent pectoral muscle size

1. Long-term uneven application of force

Before training, right-handed people are used to using the right hand for a long time, resulting in the right hand muscle strength is stronger than the left.

2. Uneven muscle strength on both sides

Some ball sports are asymmetrical sports (more force on the usual side), which leads to uneven muscle strength in the long term.

3. Poor training posture (crooked side)

After starting to contact with heavy training, when doing double joint movements such as pushing chest, pulling back, pushing shoulder (shoulder and elbow joint movements at the same time) Due to the strong right hand strength, the right side of the chest and back cannot get a good training effect because of the habit of "hand" force. Left hand strength is weak, but inadvertently use more chest and back shoulder (trunk) strength. So that the left side of the chest and back to get good training effect. In the long run, the left pectoral muscle will be bigger (stronger) than the right.

Concentration

Focus on the right (weak side) "shoulder" joint pectoral muscle contraction activities, joint activities are also larger than the left.

Pay attention to the "elbow position"

The muscles of the chest and back are trained through the shoulder joint to drive the upper arm, and the "elbow" is the farthest point of the upper arm. Control the position of the elbow to determine whether the upper arm movement is in place, in order to effectively train the pectoral muscle side bottom contraction and extension.

Practice "dumbbell"

The dumbbell movement is separated from left to right, so that you can feel more clearly the force and control of the left and right hands and left and right chest. It is also the most effective training method that can really improve the strong and weak sides.

The practice is as follows

1. the stronger (left) side of the pectoral muscle completely ignore him. 2. Focus completely on the right pectoral muscle, shoulder joint pectoral muscle contraction. 3. The right triceps power away, reduce the elbow out of force. 4. Learn the core launch - power from the inside out, from the A waist force (to stabilize the body), B chest force to drive the shoulders, C hands are driven, so as to really practice to the torso muscles.

Reverse operation

If the left is weak and the right is strong, then the opposite way to adjust the above correction method is applicable to the left and right upper limb muscle strength differences affected. If there is no difference in upper limb strength, but there is a difference in the size of the chest, that is often the movement of the crooked side, ask someone to help correct it.
