Tall shugger

Hi all, I am a tall guy, 6'4". Though my house has 9 foot ceilings, am I in danger of sticking a hammer throughh my ceiling on some of my movements? For example, with butter churning, I can imagine some potential problems. How have other tall shuggers handled this?

Hi,
I'm 6'3" with 8'6" ceilings and don't have any problems. I hit the ceiling once when doing the triceps extension/scratch back exercise but only because I held the hammer just beneath the head.
With the butter churn I turn the hammer so the head is down and imagine I'm compacting the soil around a fence post. I also add a 1/2 squat into the movement.
