Which hand is your strongest?
« on: May 26, 2007, 10:40:41 AM »
I'm right handed so I reckon I would been strongest in the right hand, but when I do hammercurls, on hand at a time, at the end of my set it's getting really hard with the right - and still easy with the left!

On the other hand, if I do triceps, say one hand at a time behind the head with dumbbells, I'm not as strong with my left as my right.

Weird.

At the same time? You must be HUGE  ;)

Tip: use the "other" hand and it feels like someone else.

If you've done other exercises before that with both hands (i.e. barbell curls) your dominant side/hand may have taken a majority of the work, hence tiring it out for the single arm movements.

My right is, but i think it might just be grip strength as i notice it when i do dumbell rows. And when i do dumbell curls its my right arm that seems to tire out quicker than my left, even though my right arm is slightly bigger than my left.
No doubt about it...
