Powertec Leverage system
Hey any one out there 6'5" tall and use one of these? I am very interested in them but I dont think it will be big enough to support a 6'5" guy?
Thanks

I don't think you should have a problem, except the squat attachment is pretty tough to use for taller guys I've heard. Check around local shops and see if any have one setup that you can try out...thats what I did.

Just curious how is the squat harder for taller guys? They can just set the starting position a bit higher and there isn't really a restriction on how high you lift it.
I could see a potential issue with a couple of the cable exercises (like tricep pulldowns) if the initial chain is too long so they start the exercise mid-motion, but that's easy to address with slightly shorter chains.

On the WBLS that's not the issue. The problem I have is the lever's axle is not high enough. The arc of the lever arm is too low to get it to work for me, I'm 6'3".
