How long are the resistance bands? I'm 5 ft 11 in, are they long enough to straighten my arms above my head?

Doesn't matter, I uses the bands for one week with p90x and every single bad I used snapped. They hurt when they went too lol. Pull up bar sags after 2 weeks of use but it made it to the end of the 90 day period

I'm 5'11" as well, and if you're talking about stretching the bands from under your feet all the way to each extended arm, they may snap on you... This happened to me with one of the heavier weighted bands when trying to do some lawn-mower moves, the handle just snapped right off. I had them for about 6 months before that happened, so I guess just don't stretch them out too much.

I'm 5'7"- works great. Don't see why there would be an issue for much taller people- arm bars are at a sloping angle upward- seems like you could adjust hand placement for balance, if needed.

This band should fit an 11" circumference bicep just fine. Mine is just over that.

I'm 6'1" and I have these. Hindsight, I would have went with longer bands with more tension.I have to put 3 bands on at once to get a necessary tension

Is not bad at all. But get the longer ones. These ones go to about above the elbow

I can't remember the exact length, and they're not with me at the moment, but I have big arms (I'm a woman), and they go all the way to my shoulder. They will stretch a bit to fit around the upper arm, and they stay up with no problem. They would leave a gap if you're wearing a sleeveless shirt, but will go up under short sleeves and give complete coverage. I ordered the same size as the average t-shirt I wear, and it seemed like a good way to gauge the size you should order. I hope this helps! :-)

Not exactly sure how long they are but I can tell you that I am 6'9'' and I have to set them all the way to the top without them being properly secured. That being said I have failed while squatting and even at the highest level they still do their job. I do squat below parallel and I usually drop the weight when I am at my lowest point and it is not much of a drop.

They should be fine. I'm 6'0 and I don't struggle at all. Actually a pretty good set for the price. I bought them 2 years ago and used them plenty and they have held together very well. Hope this helps.

They stretch, but I wear a 32 inch sleeve in a long sleeved shirt and they (the sleeves) go from my wrist to my armpit. So the length on a bigger man would be questionable.

I'm 6'1" and there fine for me, but as an earlier responder noted, it depends on the length of your arms.

This is my opinion but I'm a tall person about 6" 2 so the bowflex dont interfere as long as you have correct posture and position then they're perfect.

These are only 5 ft in length but good quality. I purchased another set when I bought these and I found that the ones that are 6 ft offered by another amazon merchant, superexerciseband are better for my height.

I am 5'11 and they are good for me. I find that on some shots I tend to hunch a little so for someone a bit shorter may be good.

Hi there, I've never measured them so I'm not sure how long they are but I have big upper arms and they fit well around them with no problem. I still have more than enough room if/when I need to make them tighter. I hope this helps.

They should...I am 5' 2.5" but it seems like there is enough give for someone of your height.

I am 5 ft 2 in and it comes high on my stomach . Its perfect for me cause I don't have to bend. I would say someone over 6 ft tall might be just fine because its all relative your height and arm length just like mine.

I don't use them for this, but they are very long (total length is 36") and seem to be strong enough to hold up. They are probably designed for a man's hand and arm. They are huge on me (5'5" female). I hope this helps
