    Is there any way of knowing if you're exercising certain muscles too much relative to others? I'm sure there are people who go to the gym all the time without the advice of personal trainers, and without realising it, fail to exercise certain muscle groups.

    I know it's not like I'm not going to end up with a strength imbalance, but is there any way of knowing how much I should do with each weight. Luckily, I don't do that much weight lifting anyway. But if I was to do more, I'd continue to lift just whatever feels right(my own judgement).

    Is there any techniques you can use in order to know how much is the right amount for each muscle in order to keep things in proportion. Is there some sort of a weight ratio for various exercises?
