Hi everyone. Have I thought of everything I need to make a successful CTB attempt using a full suspension?
1. I'm planning to do this on a door.
(Does it matter which side of the door the body should be hung on?)
2. At the bottom, I want to attach the rope to the dumbbell using a standard knot like an anchor hitch.
3. At the top, where the loop is, I'll use an Arbor knot.
4. The rope is 10 mm, made of synthetic material with a core.
5. I'll place the loop around my neck just above the Adam's apple, under the jawbone.
The loop will be at the back of my neck.
6. I'll test everything to make sure it holds my weight and withstands tugging.
7. I'll stand on a chair and take a step...
Please let me know—in short, are these generally all the main steps? Or did I miss something?
I'm also wondering if the door will close with a rope as stiff as mine. I can't check in advance since I'll only be at the location where the door is when I'm doing the CTB. Maybe I can make some with this. Press down hard so the core spreads out a little. Or should I not do that?
