There’s no realistic chance of being able to find the story now, but back when I was a kid I read a short story in a science fiction magazine that had a really cool huge dude.
It was set on a high-gravity planet where it was hard for humans to even exist. You had to grow up there basically to be able to move about normally, and of course you grew up very thick and muscular.
And a very good word picture was painted of our hero, and he was one seriously thick dude. Way beyond any PL’er or bb’er. Low to the ground too: can’t recall for sure but I think he was only about 5 feet even or maybe an inch or two past that.
The native species placed great emphasis on strength and had an amused, condescending attitude towards humans. Basically considered them like little boys or some such thing. The natives were seriously strong bastards. Disputes or status (I forget which) were often settled by who could lift and move the heavier stone.
Now some problem of some kind came up and the only way to solve it, where things would turn out OK for the humans, would be to change the law. And the law had not been changed for a very long time and could only be changed by someone who lifted and moved, across some particular distance, a given stone which was considerably larger than the largest stones ever used in any other sort of dispute.
Of course the natives considered it completely ridiculous that our human hero even attempted it.
I remember the stone had a spike in it large enough to be gripped with both hands – this was the means of lifting it.
Now you wouldn’t think (or I wouldn’t think) that you could have a really great writeup of a titanic effort in lifting and carrying a stone, but the author really did accomplish that.
Of course our hero succeeded, the mission was accomplished, and new respect was earned for the humans.
As he put down the stone, it rolled a little bit, and he thought he saw on the bottom that it had been substantially hollowed out.
So apparently the elders who made the stone did not want for the task to be as impossible as it appeared – and as it appeared impossible for even the strongest of the extremely strong natives to lift and move it, it ought to have been impossible for any human to do, even our hero. So it wasn’t an impossible feat of strength, though it was astounding, but rather a feat of conviction.
Anyway, that was the hugest (in terms of thickness anyway) fictional character I can remember, other than a few comic book figures.
Pretty much make The Hulk more squat, with a more normal face, and you’d have him.

All the internet 500 pound benchers and such might qualify as fictional huges.
Chris Redfield of RE was said to be around 180 at 5’11 in the first game.

Hahaha, I was going to post this!
The books are pretty formulaic, but fast-paced and exciting, that’s for sure.

Yep. I just finished the latest one, “Gone Tomorrow”
I never really read them for the “mystery” part, though it’s usually pretty good.
I just like seeing Jack do his thing, drink coffee, eat a lot, punch some guys and get the girl. Then he puts his toothbrush in his pocket and carries on to another city.

Reacher is actually about 6’5".
Kenpachi > All
Alternatively:
I want the old mans physique?
Did anyone mention Doc Savage?
How could I forget this guy!?!? For those who don’t know, he’s a character from the 1930s and is like Indiana Jones crossed with James Bond and the Venture Brothers.
Someone even made up a fake exercise routine that he followed, here it is if you’re man enough to try it!

I love those books. If I were a guy, big and much smarter, I’d want to be him. I think I’ve read them all now.
