hello friends
i work out for while now, it very nice. but issue.
one shoulder always higher than other?? how to fix. no pain, both arms about same level of flexible. but difference worries me. how to fix, pls help.
if thread against rules i delete
hair is in way. this better view?
why would you grow your hair out like that? makes you look like a femboy. Also if it doesn't hurt there's no reason to worry about it, no one is perfectly symmetrical
anon hes clearly a puerto rican they have long hair
Probably scoliosis, no way to fix it just live with it it’s not a big deal.
spine no curve. when stand and walk, body is fine. only when pull-up does difference show
if i focus on pull-up, my shoulders become equal. but i just curious why naturally my shoulder are uneven
what is femboy?
spine is fine!!
I see this video before. when do stretch tests, both sides equal. even if there is tiny difference, it not explain why pull-up has such big difference. surely the difference be reflected somewhere in body, right?
no equipment, only body weight.
left side much stronger than right side
try to do some scalp pullups
Maybe one side muscles developed more because of your day to day activity, habits. Like carrying bag if groceries strictly with left or right hand, which makes your back work to straighten up.
When I do pullups I feel that one side is weaker than the other. But I try my hardest to engage them equally.
Hope that helps.
By the way, I have no idea what I'm talking about. Cheers.
Are you left handed OP?
You're pulling with left side too much. Pull more with right side.
If it is scoliosis, try and get that checked out. Make sure the spine's curve isn't getting worse. Could impact your breathing later on.
This is the only correct reply. Either mobility or strength imbalance, either way squat university has you covered.
both side equal flexible. how to fix strength difference? i have no weights
perhap. but every i try not fix problem
Fastest way to fix this is to use a cable lat pulldown. Prob could use a bar then later use a single handle to alternate both sides. Work on compound, then isolate the weaker side afterwards.
You should get some lactic acid lotion
im having the same problem and the fix i'm trying is to do scapular pulls and really working on equally pulling with both sides
my worry is it affect me negatively. if i stay healthy, i no worries
you have no issue in body otherwise?
I used to have alot of shoulder pain, but that was from the injury and would happen even in my regular day
I'm the same, for me it's because of a shoulder injury I sustained in highschool wrestling. It doesn't affect my ability to do pullups or hurt in any way, it just results in one sides teres major growing more
Scapular depression would be my first guess.
Initiate the pull with full scapular depression and really focus on it. This will strengthen that position and possibly reveal problems with form.
More than this, dedicate a few months to l-sits. You can do them tucked. It will be the most strength focused way to build scapular depression strength without worrying about equipment or exercises. You can do them anywhere. Just measure how long you can do them for and add time.
i do l-sit daily. i can do very well yes yes.
only concern is will this imbalance be bad for my body in long run no?
Judging by your left trap it is either not engaging the same amount as your right trap or it cannot because it is not as strong.
How symmetricl is your l-sit? Get a back shot of your traps/shoulders in l-sit. Im guessing that either it is unbalanced or your arms are unsymmetrically positioned in your chin up
here u go. i do l-sit in photo, only leg do not show.
interesting. thank for telling
yes, left hand is main hand
can explain more?
you're supposed to hold the pullup bar from the other side (where the handles are) so you don't make the bar fall when your body wight shifts forward. Still I don't think pullup bars are safe at all even if you use them correctly. I only use rings cuz I don't wanna break my bones from falling
oh yes, i do like that all time. i do this way just for photo yes yes
thank forcyour concern
Since it seems to be non issue when you sit like this maybe it's tight or weak muscles elsewhere
Picrel maybe you're tight in the green circle and weak in the purple. Maybe it's elsewhere in your hips or something
Uh yeah, picrel here lol
Roughs lines but it seems like you're swaying to the left
You are facing the wrong side. One slip and your in snappy citty
Look up an anatomy diagram and massage and stretch all the muscles that might be pull your scapula upwards. At least that's what worked for me when I had your problem.
okay, this new thingc i try this soon okay thank you
not me, that not me okay no
not my name and i never been prison nope
congrats stayvun hows prison life and why did you kill that girl?
oh look its that moronic baki face guy from tiktok
Firstly, stop jacking off so much. The nofap will go well the the roids we can tell you do because of your back acne.
Second, stop pulling with your arms. Instead, from a dead hang at the bottom, try to aim your nipples up and touch them to the bar. Don't think about pulling up, think about pulling your elbows down and to your rear.
Do all this and you'll fix your muscle imbalance and work your back muscles better. Also put fat gripz on that bar.
no steroid , i use none of this steroid okay
this the issue. i good flexible in all ways, no pain no issues. but concern; will this developer into bad thing?
i hear wide grip chin up slow can help with imbalance
If you can, do some pilates classes and make mention of this imbalance. Even yoga might do some good but I find pilates much better for this type of thing. Shoulder dislocations (not literally; look it up) with a straight bar may help with shoulder flexion too. I broke my mid/upper back (t5 and t6) in a motorbike accident which led to all sorts of other issues. My posture was ruined and compensating my movements to avoid pain radiated to my shoulders and hips. Then from shoulders to hips, you can imagine your whole body ends up dysfunctional. Also a musician so standing with a heavy instrument for long periods became unbearable and gradually a lean got worse and worse as I deteriorated. By far the most beneficial thing would be pilates. Good luck bro, nip this in the bud before it wrecks your shit.
people really do wide grip chinups?
