muscle symmetry(sp?)

[VanellaSchnella]

How many of you actually have muscles that look exactly the same on one side as the other? Ex: Left shoulder looks the same as the right shoulder. Also each muscle is equally as strong on one side as the other. I'm guessing this is extremely rare because of being right handed or left handed. I think sports also would have a huge part in it. For example I use to play pitcher in baseball and I'm right handed, my right shoulder is massive compared to my left shoulder.

To be honest, I doubt it is even physically possible to have identical muscle mass. I mean being right or left handed has a lot to do with it...and even masturbation hand changes muscle sides

I use to have similar sized shoulders (not a lot of muscle but they looked the same) Then I tweaked my shoulder really badly, and it actually changed the size of my arm. (left shoulder looks different than the right)

Rt. shoulder, upper arm is slightly larger and more muscular...mainly b/c I am right arm dominant.

I'm same on all sides, but being a weightlifter, I make it a practice to make the even. If I see one not as big as the other, I had a few reps to that part. Plus I'm ambidextrous in most everything.

Habve some one photograph you. Then put it in Photoshop and do mirror images of both sides. The two resulting pictures may be recognizable but certainly will look different. None of us are symmetrical. With respects, Thresher, you try this, too.

We women get hung up on breasts because they are never the same size shape or height. Another good reason for GOOD bras.

I didn't mean exactly, cell by cell., but generally I do notice one side overtaking the other and try to compensate. Since my left hand was stabbed, I've noticed my right getting meatier....plus I think the doc was a little too rushed...damn thing still doesn't feel right.
