Uneven Muscle Developement: A Pain to Solve!

A common problem: muscles that are out of proportion when compared to each other. I'm mainly talking about one stronger and better developed side and one less developed side, but another problem can be that your abdominals are not in a straight line with each other. That last problem is impossible to solve. However, there are some exercises that can develope your underdeveloped muscle more.

my problem is that I have been working out for more than 5 monthes and I eat food that contain big amount of protein but the size of muscles didn't change although I've been

stronger

in your opinion what's the reason??

@AhmedEljak Send me a pm about this and give me as much info to work with as possible please!

Mmmmm. ... You don't realise how good your muscular body looks. It's stunning. ;)

@jlvi13 oh right, that's actually what I thought. Cool, thanks very much. I'd best get started then. Got any tips on staying motivated? Some days I'll be up for a workout, others I just won't, though I'm always up for martial practice.

@jagerma5ter I would go for both together. If you would first get muscular your muscles are less flexible and if you first become very flexible without doing any strength training you will be very vulnerable for injuries! Overflexibility is a very bad thing too if you are planning to use your body for things that require strength.

@jagerma5ter Walking does not make your legs muscular. If any, it will make them thinner.

[jagerma5ter]

@jlvi13 I also want to increase my flexibilty (again my upper body is far more flexible than my legs), is it best to try and increase flexibilty and muscle at the same time, or should I wait until I'm flexible first before doing serious workouts?

@jlvi13 Cheers mate, just so you know i don't really have any equipment. just a few light dumbells, the heaviest being 5.5Kg I think. I don't really work out much (I'm starting now really) but I seem to put muscle on my arms and shoulders really easy, and not at all on my legs, even though I walk EVERYWHERE.

[jlvi13]

@jagerma5ter Squats, lunges, deadlifts, leg press, leg curls, calf raises. Just some exercises you could do for your legs. Keep the sets and reps low and only choose 2-3 of these exercises. one targeting your quads, one of your hamstring muscles and perhaps glutes and finally you could do some calf exercises to work out those.

my problem is my legs are too thin, not actually weak, but they look it, even though theyre kinda toned. I'm too embarassed to wear shorts. and my lower abs are just not really visible but the top ones are very pronounced. I'm slim by the way, I want to look like bruce lee really... HELP. (and yes I do Martial Arts)
