Default Reverse problem ( stalled )

Hey guys...

Im having some troubles with my transmission... when the car its cold, first start of the day, i need to give it a lot of gas to start moving on reverse (2500rpms usually). It feels like if something were holding the car.

It gets a lot better when the car warms up, i have a Yank SS4000 and built
4l60e.

Would you think this is normal?

Thanks for the help!!

I am not sure about in the morning though the way the engine runs and all are different, I do know it will take more throttle RPM to move backwards than forward because the gear ratio in reverse is higher than it is in forward gears ,So you should expect hgher PRM i reverse tha in forward gears to get the car moving
