In a study to compare the effects of Eccentric versus Concentric Training on Thigh Muscle Strength and EMG researchers found a very funny and interesting effect.

Different people were asked to train 1 leg a certain way for 10 weeks, 3 days a week. After 10 weeks their untrained leg was stronger too!

"Interestingly, with both types of training there were specific cross-education effects, that is, action type and velocity specific increases in strength occurred in the contralateral, untrained, leg, accompanied by a specific increase in eccentric to concentric EMG ratio after eccentric training."

So when training just one side your other side will get stronger too. This makes it very interesting to start training with a split training program: one side one day, next day the other side. Theoretically the side you don’t train on a certain day will still get stronger.
