You need to wank more matey,build up your forearms.

Just dont grip that as hard as you grip the rope. ?

There are a host of videos online if you need guidance with this...

And probably leave off the grippy gloves too.
Save those for climbing, they really help. I'd still be stood on the ground in front of my first tree if it wasn't for the gloves.

But then it feels like someone else is doing it for you ??

I remember the pain on my training course! I did a lot of foot locking especially when I couldn't get my feet on the tree. Is your Prussik gripping to much making it harder to move in a nice swift motion? 

 

Keep at it. knock one out in the morning as a warm up ?
