Default New clutch and hard to get into 1st

Ive put like 20miles on my car since i got my clutch put it. Its still hard to get it into 1st. So i t hrew in a new clutch cable and adjusted it and it worked fine for a few times then it started doing it again where if i stop and go alot i could have the clutch pedal to the floor but ill still fight the damn thing into 1st gear it doesnt do this to any other gear just 1st. WTF is the problem?
