Yes there are restrictions. The taller and larger you are the harder your body has to work for you, so there’s going to be a significant drop off in agility and perhaps flexibility. Taller people tend to suffer from joint issues at a higher rate than average, are more likely to suffer from blood clots, back pain, etc. This can be seen in the NBA quite prevalently. Wilt Chaimberlain was 7’ something and had like a 4 foot vertical, played volleyball, you get the idea. He’s probably the most agile, freakishly-tall athlete ever.
Remember our bodies are optimized for a certain size and weight, so when we’re talking about extremes on either end there can be unexpected side affects.
