I don't think so. I am only 6'.

What do you think is the average height for a male in the US?

Five foot, ten inches.

Actually, it's 5'9.5

I just officially started a training program adapted from this:

Added in some weight lifting compound lifts for now because I am still worried I won't continue getting stronger on the lower levels of the progressions.

Mainly going to focus on isometrics when I get a little bit more advanced.

Once I get the training flow streamlined and can shorten the time in the gym, I will integrate it with something like this:

FIVE NINE AND A HALF

Fucking manlets I swear. I'm 5'10 btw

Also decimalizing imperial half way through and not giving a fuck about a standard is triggering my autism.

Write 5' 9 1/2'' or 5.791

6' is on the tall side. Don't get up quickly. And check with your doctor if any of the stuff you're taking could be causing it. Supplements are drugs and drugs have side effects.

If supplements are drugs, then so is a cheeseburger.

I'm browsing the Eugene Sandow link Doc posted elsewhere, I put the link at the bottom. I like and generally agree with this guys views on strength and health.

“I am myself no believer in a special diet, still less in a rigid one, as necessary while training.
The old nonsense on this subject, about raw eggs and underdone meat, seems to be passing away,
and more rational views now prevail. I eat whatever I have a taste for, without stinting myself unduly; nor do I restrict myself seriously in what I drink.
Commonly, I abjure anything intoxicating, confining myself mostly to beer and light wines.
Tea and coffee I never suffer myself to touch.
All I impose upon my appetites is that they shall be temperately indulged.”
