to a certain point imo... height is an advantage before it becomes a disadvantage
apparently 5'11 / 6'0 is roughly the best height for a strongman (also considering you have an average body ie not an overly long torso/legs/limbs)...
i think of it this way... you get someone whose really short... they wont pull out as much as a guy roughly 6'0 ...just at that height theres so much muscle u can add etc to that frame as compared to the taller guy
however... you get someone whose 7 foot tall... theres no super strong guys at that height, it becomes harder... longer limbs, torques, etc... higher centre of gravity, longer distances to pull/push... tho... i just found myself in a paradox thinking about it...
if a guy 7 foot tall bulked up to a massive fkn size equivalent to a guy 6foot tall (lets say we take Mariusz Pudzianowski...)... but pretend hes 7 foot with the muscle mass to make him the same size in proportion to his height (hell id imagine hed weigh over 400lbs haha)... then with all that extra muscle on him i could only presume theyd lift more...
tho using that reasoning i suspect at those heights its in such a small percentile and just not what the regular human body is designed for (if this at all makes any sense?)... ie... youd need to be genetically gifted, short guys naturally look more bulky than taller guys except for the rarer cases... and once guys break the high 6 foot marks or 7 foot marks then theyre naturally very thin... so it becomes harder to break those boundaries, add the muscle, lift the weight etc
i dont know how to explain wtf is in my head atm haha soz
