Why isn’t our dominant hand’s bicep disproportionally larger than our non-dominant hand’s bicep?

Considering we use our dominant arm for lifting, most tasks, holding things, etc.

Your muscles don’t just continue to grow and grow, just because you use them. They aren’t going to grow unless you basically over stress them.

Like i lift an 8 pount piece of iron around 1300 times a day. When you first start to do that, your muscles will grow. Right up until the point that you’re no longer “tearing” the muscles to do that. Then they will stop growing because you are no longer damaging them.

Now, if you suddenly start lifting 9 pound parts, they’ll grow a little more and then stop again.

But they’re only going to grow enough that what you’re doing isn’t damaging the muscles anymore.
