I'm looking to mount my rings in my new house - the garage has a finished ceiling (why?!) at just short of 8', but if I go through the hole for attic access, I can mount the screw eyes to the joists at a bit over 11'. This should just do me for muscle ups (I'm 6'1"), though it will require that my head go through the square hole.
So - the hole is not quite square, but is 24" X 22" or so. If I'm oriented sideways, the clearance for my shoulders is minimal but I have more wiggle room for head/elbows. If I'm frontways, I have more lateral room, but I wonder if I will be rubbing my elbows or bumping my head!
Given my tight measurements, would either orientation make any difference?
