Likely nothing...: One of the more common reasons for a pronounced protrusion of one side of the chest or the other is a degree of thoraco-lumbar scoliosis which is not necessarily something to worry about if you have no symptoms of chronic back pain. However, don't focus on that if you are otherwise fine. It is better that you are exercising regularly.
