    I have the same thing, and funny thing is the smaller side can go a few more reps for DB curls then the bigger side

    I always figured it had something to do with me being right handed and using my right arm a lot more often then my left, maybe overworking the muscles in that arm to an extent so they can't get as big, but my body still recognizes that I use it all the time and it needs to have strength to keep up with it so it is stronger but doesn't have as much mass

    I will never understand this. I train with good technique and I sometimes do single arm curls on a rest. Im left handed. Punch harder with my left. Throw balls further with my left. My left bicep is more ripped, but my right is bigger and stronger when curling dumbbells. :S

    I've always wondered is it a good idea to more reps on the weaker/smaller arm?

    90% or more of the people on this site are not symetrical. My left arm is smaller but the strength is equal. A lot of people say to just work them both the same and they will even out eventually. I've seen a few training articles where people have recommended one or two extra reps with the weaker arm at the end of your last set of a particular excercise. With this you have to be careful not to overtrain tho.

    Check your calves/legs, too. Chances are the side with the bigger arm also has a bigger leg. It's pretty common and as you grow it becomes less apparent.

    Genetics, a lot of people have one side bigger than the other. Most people have one more defined PEC than the other. Luck of the draw.
