    Need help keeping symmetry

    I just did my first competition and plan on doing more in the future. I feel like I'm pretty well balanced, but I'm a rookie. If you guys see anything that warrants attention please let me know. The before pic was from this time last year (and I had already lost about 4% BF). The afters are from this past July. I don't know if it matters, but I'm 29 yrs old, 6 ft @ 215 lbs. (the after pics were @ 200 lbs) I'm natural at the moment, but looking to do my first cycle in a month or 2.

    Thanks guys! I've always known that chest was a weak point for me. It has been coming along since the show though. I run into the problem of pushing a lot of weight, but not having the size to go along with. I try to keep the reps between 10 and 15 on all but the last working set... the last one I do as much as I can for 6 (tonight was 325 lbs... its a new record!) But I see guys pushing that much weight with MUCH bigger chests. Oh well, I guess that's genetics for ya. I never would have thought to bring up traps though. I usually work them when I go heavy on deadlifts and then 4 high rep sets on shrugs. Thanks for the tips! I'll make the adjustments to my work outs.
