I did something weird to my right upper arm where spinning the rope is aggravating it. But one of the many things I love about having learned about fitness from Dan here is that I now know how to simply adapt. So today I made up my own workout and did an EMOM for 30 minutes. 15 jumping jacks, 5 push-ups, and 5 ab crunchers or 10 bicycle crunches. Was a great workout, and didn't mess with my arm while I let it get better and get back to jumping. Will try to go for a 4-mile walk later if I can too.  Let's get it, peeps!

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!!
