Strength training recommendations for tall male.

ShoddyGorgon

Hey, folks. Alongside cutting down on my calorie intake and increasing my cardio, i'm keen to start some weight lifting/strength training to increase muscle mass and pump up my metabolism. I'm 6'3 and was wondering if there are specific exercises I should be focussing on which are best suited for tall folk. Maybe i'm just being a noob and height isn't relevant, just wanted to check.

Young, old, male, female, short, tall. All the same lifts.

Pick a novice program based on the big compound lifts (bench press, deadlifts, squats, over head press, rows)

Starting strength, Stronglifts 5x5,

Jason Blaha's 5x5 is a good one.

No there isn't.

I'm 6' 2" and lift heavy.

Compound movements. Squat, dead lifts, bench, bent over rows, military press.
Those will get you started. Don't lift heavey at first. Work on your form then go up.

Do the big lifts like everyone says. Depending on your hip mobility and limb length you may have a more difficult time deadlifting than anything, but you should still be able to do it.

Mr_Excitement

Yep, as others said, same as everyone else. The big compound lifts. But don't worry about how your weight compares to other people-- the weight just has more leverage on your muscles than it has on theirs, and you have to move it further.
