Hula Hooping for Exercise

[Zandy595]

I keep hearing that hula hooping is a great form of exercise. Does anyone do it? Does it work for you? Where did you get your hoop? I can only find kids sizes at Walmart. The "experts" say adults should use one that is 40" and weighted is easier for beginners.

This link shows you how to make your own http://www.jasonunbound.com/hoops.html
or you can buy them on Etsy. http://www.etsy.com/shop/Chopstickgirl?ref=top_trail (This gal is an on-line friend I have "known" for years. In the last year she has lost in excess of 120llbs)

There is a lady who sells them (hoops for fitness purposes) and does classes here. Her name is Heather Palm I think. I'm gonna try to find something to post.

Do the students have to wear mod spandex & polyester workout clothes?

I've done the hula hoop exercise on Wii and OMG thought I was going to die! All my muscles were hurting.

On Wii Fit? That's where I first got the idea. When I don't feel like doing Wii Fit I can just pull out a hula hoop (if I could only find one).
