I read a long time ago that you should not train one side more than the other, because it's normal to have one side bigger than the other, because the human body is not symmetrical.

I say just stick with barbell and simultaneous dumbbell movements, but if you do unilateral dumbbell movements only match your weak side with your strong side. In the end, you probably won't achieve perfect symmetry. Most people have some level of disproportion.
The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
