A few months ago someone mentioned to me that hula hooping burns calories and after a few weeks of daily hooping you'll resemble a super model...minus the crabby face and cocaine addiction.
So, I purchased one from here-I got the 3lb version and I've been using it when I workout at home.
(Lets not share this with the peeps at my old people gym, they might get jelly that I still have my original hips)
It's actually fun and easy to do while watching the boob tube. After a few days, I was able to go both directions. I know. I too was impressed with myself. I can do 15-20 minutes easily.
I shot a quick video just in case you didn't believe I'm a professional hooper now.
The good news is I've been approached by 1 circus and 2 carnivals for side work.
Suz the Hellacious Hooper….coming to a town near you.
So, have you hooped lately?
You are awesome! I've heard about hula hooping as a workout, but never tried it. Not sure if I could still hoop...
ReplyDeleteI was good at hula hooping when I was a kid....I would probably break apart these days! Good for you. Happy Weekend.
ReplyDeleteI've also heard it's 'good' to hula hoop. It's even on a Wii workout. So I've done it on the Wii...so air hooping counts, right?
ReplyDeletei had to find this post from one of my blogger pals. she began hooping a while ago and has done SO well with her exercise, weight loss, and TALENT! :)

How awesome is she???? VERY.
DeleteWell, now I've got to up my game a bit. :) Thanks for sharing!
I own a hoop and need to get hooping!
ReplyDeleteI definitely need to start do that! You are just so talented Suze!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't even hula hoop when I was a kid. I'm pretty sure there's no way I could do it now!
ReplyDeleteWell call me impressed! I can't hula hoop at all.
ReplyDeleteLOL Not only can you Hula Hoop, but you can do it while you video tape!! AMAZING :)
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely impressed. I could never get the hula hoop to cooperate many years ago when it was the newest craze. This time around I'll just be in awe of your talent. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteWell--they say that we always should try to do exercise that we enjoy.... Sounds like you have a winner there... AND--if you can work in the carnival also on the side, WELL---that's even better....Just think what interesting characters you will meet working in the carnival or circus... You would NEVER run out of blog topics!!!!! ha
ReplyDeleteI enjoy walking ---so that is the extent of my exercise these days....
Hugs,
Betsy
Shoop-shoop Hula-Hoop! Remember that jingle from the commercials?
ReplyDeleteYou look like a model to me :)
TGIF!
I DO hoop! I might not be thin, but I have a waist :)
ReplyDeleteWow. Very impressed!!! I've been thinking about getting one...does that count?? :D
ReplyDeleteCool! I loved to hula hoop as a kid. Wonder if I can still do it with old lady hips?
