MummyHen Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Does anyone hula hoop? I’m thinking of getting a hoop to help with fitness. It seems like a bit of fun with a positive result. Does anyone have experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I have had a go at a couple of classes. I felt wholly inadequate as I was limited to basic hulaing one way and then the other. The more longstanding members were wandering around doing all sorts. I did invest in a hoop and do have a go on my own occasionally. I think that it is supposed to be quite good for toning the tum!

ClaireG Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I've been doing virtual hulaing on the wii fit. I'm not very good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Had a hula hoop in the 70's, couldn't do it then so not hopeful of being able to hula as an adult, and too embarrassed to try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I hula hoop of the wii fit too. It certainly makes my muscles ache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Very good for tums and pelvic floor...can't do it any more due to arthritis..... I watch my grand daughters do it now aged 9,7 & 5yrs there pretty good but all go dancing and gymnastics, (one is the N.E's youngest summersaulter at trampoline) I had a red and white hoop yrs ago.

Lesley Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I used to be really good at hulaing - but have just started doing it on the WiiFit and my knee is coping quite well, I'd love to be able to do it properly again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
