Had a so so day yesterday, stalled most lifts 3-4/5
Curious what your thoughts are on addressing imbalance, my upper body is heavily biased to the left side. I know this is because I carry my 35 lb toddlers on that side, however it makes my right arm the weak side. My bench and ohp for both break down on that side, any ideas for getting it balanced? Maybe just work the one arm, extensions, curls? I'm worried the heavier I go the bigger the disparity will be. Unless at some point it should somewhat right itself.
Did do a number of toddler presses tonight exploring the issue
:-) kids loved it.

Start carrying them on the right, Chris.
:-)
I haven't seen people have much success with one side training, I would just work with weight you can meet your reps with and let it even out over time.
Bis and Shoulders today, high reps on both, with very little shoulder work...but it felt good and strong.
Preacher curls 145 x 6 sets
Close grip barbel curls 110 x 4 sets
Cambered bar curls 125, 135, 145, 155
Seated Military press 135, 155, 165, 175, 185, 195
