Heres' my issue which I think has been in developemet for a while yet. The left hand side of my lower back is much much more developed than the right, due to the nature of activities I do being left side intensive (Cricket Batting, Archery). How can I train the right hand side - I know it can't be fully isolated, but is there any way I can work out the inbalance?
one leg / suitcase style deadlifts! also I've have major imbalances as you mention, and one of the best things I started doing was one leg squats on the weak side - I only started doing them a few weeks ago, and even just say 5 sets of 8 reps, with no weight, and I can alraedy feel the improvement....
That sounds like an idea. The left is about 2/3 times as developed as the right which yeh, I don't much like the idea of. I suspect it might help me with my stability for archery if I even it out. I'll try the one leg squat thing - interestingly they are part of my physio program
easy, hows the training going?! Just saying I've been keeping on the one legged squats and now can easily do 10 on the bad leg, (considering I could barely do one full one when I started lol..) progression is fast! I don't know if its just me but I find holding a weight out in front of you makes it easier to balance... (eg a couple of kilos).... Good Luck.
