ya need to shift your weight.
When your moving,most of your weight should be on one arm so da other arm could help u spin,then after u shift your weight to da other arm,and so on...

hhhmmmmmmm, turtles are not so much a strength issue rather than a balance issue, but that goes without saying. try going into the turtles from your knees, spinning into it. have your elbow in your gut ready to go into the handglide position and twist into it rather than starting from a stopped position. twist half way on the one hand with the other hand off but still have the other one in your gut ready to go down. rock to either side as you spin around, but it's not that easy. practice sitting in the turtle position for about 15 seconds without moving just to get your wrists and your balance used to it. Try that, sorry but over the internet breakin teaching is not too easy, just keep going don't give up and figure it out.

heyheyhey now, zodiak is cool! and in a way he's right. not to be sexist, but girls are generally weaker than guys. theres not much you can do about nature. just means we have to practice harder and surpass them in different ways. its really not a big deal. and equality doesnt really exist. then we'd all be the same, and there'd be no point in dancing a unique dance. just suck it up girls, go practice.

funny, u said 'we' as if i was addressin a group of ppl. I believe i was askin lost wut was the problem. i tell guys to work out to get muscle for some moves. shit I work everyday but idont go around tellin ppl i am strong. ppl who c me kno that for themselves. I might go around braggin dat i go fer two hours, or dat half the guys int he gym cant lift as well as me, but dat is widiculous. gettin strength is nto a bad thing. u think i am going to compare grls and guys when it comes to strength? in my opinon it strength is ablility to push personal limits. no two ppl have same structure so when 'I' talk of strength, it is about what you know you can do and wut u think u could do if u were a stronger person.
