      Title says it all, 13 inch left 14 right
      Can curl 12.5 kg on left and 20 kg on the right
      How the **** did this happen I trained equally with db work on each arm from starting 5-6 months ago with no barbell work.
      How do I fix this mess?

      Cheers

      I have a similar problem noticeable strength in one arm and size. I just try to use dumbells and barbells with equal form.

      Train unilaterally. The smaller arm more than likely has you doing cheat reps compared to the larger arm.
      Dumbbell Preacher curls are a great way to stop cheating.

      I did db work but one set, one side, per time. Worked for me, maybe your using bad form.

      OP u didn't suddenly woke up one day and this happened...as u said it happened during 5-6 months of training
      u should have realised it earlier...7.5 kg difference in strength between left and right hand jesus...couldn't u realise that when it was at 4 kg ?

      just ****ing do the same reps with the same form with both arms.If u did DB work during all this time then imo u focus on moving the weight rather than isolating ur left bicep or u have more volume for right arm

      Well it kinda did happen overnight, the other week I tried to see how heavy I could go on curls, to my surprise my right could go far heavier.

      Start all excercises with your weaker arm first no matter what and how ever many you get with that arm is how many you do with your right arm. I dont give a damn if you can do more with ur stronger arm after dont do more
