Muscle Imbalances

I’m unsure if my glute muscles or my hamstring/quads are unbalanced. When i turn to the side there is a serious difference. I measured my quads and they’re about a inch difference at the same spot on each leg. This might sound stupid but i used my phone as a level and my flutes were even

    Perfectly normal.

    We are human.

    Imbalances is just a buzz word people use to draw attention to their content.

    In most cases it's irrelevant and nothing to be concerned about for general goals.

    I always have one bigger leg because I am naturally right legged (kick the ball for the dog with that leg etc). Used to be worse when I did martial arts, less so with weightlifting now. My right hand and wrist is also slightly bigger than my left - perfectly normal, and only a concern if you’re trying to get perfect symmetry for your sport I.e bodybuilding.

    Try to do the same work on each leg but if they are still not balanced then it’s alright as long as you are training then the same way
