1 minute: Max Push-ups 38
1 minute: Max Sit-ups 35

Good to hear from you, Bob. Thanks for the kind words.

Great work on the WOD. Your pullup numbers are very high in relation to your PU and SU. Solid numbers all the way around, however.

Had trouble finding the motivation to get out of bed this morning (Tuesday,5.30am) never mind to train.
Eventually pushed myself into the WOD:

Finished off with a back bridge for 75 seconds.
