how to hoola hoop

Exercising with the hoola hoop is lots of fun. You can exercise for 10 minutes and burn about 100 calories. Burning 100 calories for 10 minutes is using your time wisely when it comes to exercising your abdominal muscles.

Let's face it - when was the last time that you exercised and had a lot of fun? Hoola hooping is like bringing back your childhood days all over again. The key to being able to hoola hoop well is first being able to get a hoop that feels right for you. Make sure that you try it in the store before you purchase it as I purchased a small hoop and it was very difficult to exercise because I just couldn't keep the hoola hoop on my waist for longer than 4 seconds.

The next hoop that I tried was a hoop with water inside and that really didn't work out well for me. Again, I couldn't keep the hoola hoop on my waist long than 3 or 4 seconds. Another waste of money.

It's been about a week or so and I am finally able to keep the hoola hoop on my waist. So far, the longest that I have had it there has been about 5 minutes. This is so amazing and fun!

I am improving my time - now each time that I do a batch of laundry, I stop by and enjoy my hoola hoop for about 10 minutes. I am no longer sore on my waist or hips which hopefully means that I'm toning up the muscles - alrighty!
