Hi all, Yesterday in my DB gain workout when I finished the interval I noticed the coach had planned slightly different exercise intensity for each side of my body. The program has been out a long time now so I assume this isn’t a glitch but what is the reason for it? It was my first time on DB gain and my first lower body session so I can’t imagine I have given any feedback to suggest one side is weaker than the other. The only lower body exercise I had done previous to this was DB squat. ![IMG_3717](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/freeletics/original/2X/4/4bd00585a32aadd21db6aa6b810b82a0c161c8bc.jpeg) ---

Hey, the coach didn’t plan differently (it gave you 10 reps with each 6 kg) it just expects you to find the left and right side differently difficult as for most people the right side tends to be stronger than the left. ---

Hi, OK, it didn’t do that for upper strange which is where you’d expect those issues to be more pronounced due to handedness but I have seen other people report it happening on upper body. Do you know if coach is expecting those issues to even out over time? ---

No it will still continue to expect that. But it should expect that from the upper body as well 🤔 But it won’t change the weight it recommends you. You’ll still train both sides evenly so no big deal
