Jesus, dude. Your "physique" troll posts are harmless and some might see them as amusing.
This post is actually detrimental to someone legitimately seeking help/advice and that's just stupid.
OP, disregard Cream's post. Are you saying that you experience muscle weakness in your left leg, as compared to your right, after exercising? If so, I would echo the poster above who said it could be a nerve issue and that you should see a doctor. ESPECIALLY if this is a recent development.
Agreed, 100%.
It's one thing to be a troll just for the sake of amusement. It's another thing when that trolling could wind up hampering someone's progress in the gym or worse...cause them an injury.
There's two factors that you can never change. One is that your two sides have different genetic inheritance. The other is that what you did as a young child in the way of exercise, will have a lasting effect. The athletic things you pursued before you were full-grown will always work out better than those you began after that. The same applies to mental tasks and manual skills. Encourage children to start practicing as young as possible and they'll have a lifelong advantage.
It's called "leg day" (and not legs day) for a reason. You need to incorporate a separate day for each leg into your split. Here's mine as an example:
Day 1: Chest
Day 2: Abs
Day 3: Back
Day 4: Shoulders
Day 5: Left leg
Day 6: Right leg
Day 7: Rest
So you are saying only to work out your chest once per week or only to work out your abs once per week, etc. etc.
This is no good. Working any part just once a week is not helpful at all. That is "weekend warrior" and raises risk of injury. Everything should be worked at least twice per week but three times is ideal. Should always rest between workouts.
OP most people have some lopsided strength. It is natural because you use your dominant side more. Just work out your whole body as usual but as somebody else said, when you do your legs start with your weaker leg. If you start with your stronger leg it "gets used to" working and can pick up some of the work your weaker leg should be doing.
For example, if you do lunges, the leg that goes forward is supposed to do most the work. You step forward with left leg and push back with left leg. But if you do right leg lung first then your right leg is already tensed up from working. Then when you do left leg lunges you might accidentally lift yourself back with right leg instead of push off with left. This happens to me sometimes so I try to remember to do left leg on everything first.
