Limiting factor was core...my abs are still fried from those GHD situps. Lower back is pretty tight as well, since I'm an idiot and decided to just do the GHD situps even though it was already tweaked. Hopefully it'll loosen up soon.

Extreme lower back discomfort during GHD situps due to tweak on very last thruster on 5/31. Could have done much better.

Starting 6/3 2008 I will be off the main site WOD, following programming laid out by Coach Russ Greene.
