What's the deal with crossing your legs when you do a pull up? Every instructional video/picture I've seen says to do it but I've never seen anyone do it in real life

I have some free weights that I use like, once every other month, if that.

pull ups i hear make you strong but they arent easy either and i am diametrically opposed to that which is not the lowest hanging froot. i would however bench if my right arm wasnt busted. but thats punishment for past stupidities so i guess i truly have done myself in in many of the ways i couldve excelled.

Everyday. Autistically. I just don't have anything else to do.

probably because common bad form is to kick your legs or "bicycle" with them. Crossing like that makes you less prone to do that.

The way it was explained to me, it gives you a more stable form so you activate less core muscle to stop from swinging as you lift. It also helps stop you from using kicking / momentum to assist the lift

I'm too tall for the pullup bar I use, when I go down I touch the floor unless I cross my legs.
