Muscle Building? I really have 2 questions, both of which I'd love to be answered. :) My first question is about unbalanced muscles. I have bigger muscles on my right arm than on my left. It isn't a huge difference like the burger king ad (I think it was), and I'm sure I can fix it soon, I just wanted to know from somebody who KNOWS the answer (please don't answer this question if you don't know anything about muscle building) : to counter this, should I lift weights with my left arm MORE, or ONLY with my left arm until it catches up? My second question is: what are some good work outs to build abs? I do regular plain old fashioned sit ups, but I wanted to know if there is a better or faster way. Thank you once again!
