does your hand hurt after a few solves?

maybe your cube isn't lubed or doesn't rotate very well.

its normal, I think. I wouldn't cube with my thumb hurting, btw. IMO, your times won't suck anymore, once your thumb is okay again...

Lots of people say that when they take a break from cubing, then come back, there times get better. I can;t say if that is really true or not, because I haven't ever really taken a break since I started speedcuing, but the people who say that are trustworthy.

Maybe I should take a break?
