“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Maybe you should use dumbells instead of a barbell.

It will never be perfect, but dumbells will help.

you mean put more weight on the left one than on the right?

I used to have the same problem like you on my dominant side mainly because I played tennis and kick the football with my right leg.
I also ride quite alot and that helped even out the differences. My muscles became leaner though. But if you're trying to bulk up then you should focus your weights more on your left side. Do extra sets for your left side.
That helped sort out my problem.

what i've been thinking about this is to work out both sides with dumbells with the same amount, but just keep training like that until your left catches up with your right.
i.e. if you can do 40 lbs per arm, 10 reps w/left and 18 w/right. work each with 40 lbs until failure. eventually your left should catch up with the right, then you can evenly increase the weight.
any comments?

No, what he's saying is don't increase the weight until BOTH arms can handle the weight. Eventually the weak arm with catch up with the strong one. You follow?

You should never work one side harder than the other. Just train them the same with seperate dumbells, and it will work out with time.

Are you sure the muscles are bigger? It's possible your skeleton is out of whack. Can you lift more with one side than the other? My left pec looks a little bigger, but it's just because my left ribs protrude more than the right. Doc said it is normal...
