Okay guys and gals I need some suggestions. I have been working my way through the Torch program, but I can not for the life of me use the 1/2 lb rope consistently. I have tried using the smaller handles, and I still find that my arms just give out. I am very conscious to make sure I am rotating from my wrists and not my my whole arm. I start out using the 1/2lb and end up having to go back to the 1/4lb to finish my workout. Now, when I do drop the weight of the rope, I try to pick up the intensity, but it is frustrating to not be able to progress. I mean how I am ever going to work towards doing the heavier ropes, if I can not handle the 1/2lb. HELP!!
