Does this leg press work for very huge guys (6 feet, 6.74 inches tall)? Thanks in adavance.

That's hard to say sine I've never been taller than 5'10". But I suppose it might be a squeeze typical for yourself or anyone so large. In fact, I would suggest you contact the manufacturer since I there is the possibility that the sliding posts may not go that far up. Personally, I would suggest a much beefier 45-degree leg sled that could hold a lot more weight and afford easier access to the seat.

I'm 6' 3" tall myself and it works fine for me. I would think it would be fine for someone your height.

I am only 6 feet tall, so I do not know for certain. I don't see why not, but you might need to drill an additional set of holes for the pins that support the weight at rest. So that your legs don't need to be excessively bent when lifting the weight off the pins, in preparation for your first set. And so that it is easy to return the weight stack to the resting point, without having to bend your knees too much. If I had to bet, I'd say that you would be pretty safe buying the press, and making the simple mod. Just my opinion, of course.

I am 5'7" and I have the setting at the max in order to fully extend my legs...My guess would be that it may not work for someone of your height.

I would think so. I'm 6'1" and there is plenty of up and down travel for me. I can't guarantee it, but I'm guessing there would be another 6 inches of vertical travel - I don't think you would max out the pushing height. You might see if you can contact the manufacturer direct to make certain.

I am 5'4" and I am using this machine to work my shoulders, core and lower back. I find that by adjusting my legs i.e. push with legs and knees (shoulders, back), straight legged (core, shoulders, back), and alternate weight on each leg (core, back) that I am getting the desired results I wanted. By focusing on which muscles I want to work on, I find my body works on them accordingly. Hope this helps you. I really love this machine. I crave my sessions on it as opposed to dreading that 'work-out'. Very relaxing and you can work as hard or soft as you like.

Six foot should be fine. See if you can get an adapter for the legs because Olympic size weights don't fit it unless they've made adjustments since I purchased my unit

This is my Dad's bed. He's about 6'6", 260. Big dude. I didn't think this would work for him but it does. Guess he's gotten used to his feet hanging off a bed. Can't say I'd advise taxing it much further though.

works fine for me when I do. I think it depends on how tall you are as the metal frame could be an issue if you crunch your knees up and they hit the frame. I'm 5'6"

No. You should not be too big. I am 6 feet tall as well with a large build and it works great for me.

I am 5'5" and it works for me. I bought it to elevate my legs after knee surgery. It depends on how you plan to use it.

I have large legs and have no problem. I love mine. You will not be disappointed. The ice packets seem to lose their fluid. I just replaced them after a year.

For average size folks it might. I am a pretty large man and this did not have the benefit that I needed. I returned it to Amazon and got another and that seems to help a little.

Yes, I am 6'3" 275+ and have used this unit extensively. I have no fear of unit failing at all, nor should you. Have pro version. This product is very well built.

I have one and am a 6'3", 215 lb weightlifter. My wife who is petite also has one. Both work great.

It would depend on how much you weigh. I am 6 ft 185 pounds and it shook like crazy. I had to have my wife stand on the other end while I did pull ups. I don't know if you read my review but I sold it on Craigslist about a month after I bought it.

I'm 6' 4" and it works for me. You will need to lift your feet and cross your ankles. Plenty of room inside for weight lifting, even at my height.

Yes definitely, I'm about 6 foot 4 and trust me there is a lot of room inside the bar. I use it for dead lifts as well.

My boyfriend is 6'4", 280, and it is totally strong. I think it had great support.

It will work for large legs. It is a little difficult getting it over the cast unless you have assistance. It fits tight around the leg and it will keep the cast dry.

Yeah, the leg part is detachable, but honestly I use mine a lot. I am roughly 6 foot tall, and any time I am doing sit up, crunches or any decline exercise I rely on the leg braces. I can't imagine trying to do decline bench press without something locking my legs in rock solid.
