  • I have a problem with my left shoulder because when I do dumbbell should press I can get the weight up easly with 35 pound on the right side but the left side I cant get it up above my head. When I lowr the weight a bit its to easy but I don't want my right shoulder to get too big compare to my left shoulder

  • @funnysickhead I have this problem too. If you are working out at home and have a strong enough pullup bar you could try attaching rope through some dumbbells and over the pull up bar so they would be hanging in the air and you could easly lift but you would have to make sure this is safe. Another way would be to get a friend help you get the weight up with the left side. Usually I workout at home on my own and just do shorter rest on these beacuse of this problem.

  • @funnysickhead it will still be a killer workout alone I would rest like 30-40 seconds but it will be slightly less weight which i can actually get above my head. You could also try doing one arm at a time but the sets do take a lot longer to do this way. If you are still having problems try some different exercises and come back to this exercise after a few weeks.
