When I go up a hill I notice that it's usually my right quadriceps muscle (I am right leg dominant) that is feeling the burn a lot more than my left leg, even though they should be doing the same amount of work.
After I'm done in those hours after when I get some wobbly legs from the biking, both legs feel the same, but going up the hill itself, only one leg feels more
Anyone else experience this?

you're using your dominant leg more than your other to push the bike up the hill. you can train yourself out of this habit in a few weeks if you're conscious of it.

r u using clipless?

But I mean both legs go up to the same height. Is isn't like I'm pushing down harder with one leg I don't think

No just sneakers
OP here. Damn i had to walk up a hill today (the same one i burn my quads on) due to heat and a health issue and i was pushing off WAY MORE on my right calf than my left as well. like, i was walking up pretty fast and almost had to stop cause it felt like my calf was gonna tear off
wtf bros

Having a dominant leg (or arm for that matter) is extremely common. If it really is bothering you that much or impairing your performance then spend some time in the gym doing sets of single-leg press, and do one less set with the dominant leg until the other leg catches up with it.
1. is one of your legs longer than the other?
2. is there damage to one of your cranks/pedals that's causing you to pedal crooked?
3. look at your feet, do you pedal the same on each side?
