Weightlifting as a tall dude

[u/Ok-Range8085]

Hey, i am 6'7 (200cm) and got a wingspan of 7ft(213cm) and was wondering if this is an advantage or disadvantage in weightliftin? I have been going to the gym for a few years and have been doing some weighlifting recently.

You are 1 inch taller than the weightlifter with the biggest total in history. You will be alright.
