Hula Hoops - Hooping
So the fitness coach that my neighbor and I go to has been having us hulu hoop as one of our exercises. It took me awhile to get it to stay up more than two times around but started doing it pretty well and by that I mean 10-15 time around. whoo hooo. Oh, on with the story. Anyway I ran across one at the used store and got it for $2 bucks. It was a bargain. I got it just after Christmas and I passed a milestone today. I hooped for a full minute! Can you believe it? I think I did 20 seconds before. I had to come share.
Hoops - not the lightweight bendy plastic things you find at the dollar stores, nope, good luck keeping that thing going around. Hooping for grownups actually costs money. If you buy new and one of the take apart weighted hoops(they break into sections) expect to spend $30-$40 at your department store. But you also can make one yourself out of water pipe.
Time - This will work your back muscles and your spine and it might make you stiff at first like it did me. Don't do more than one minute, twice a day for the first five days or a week and then you can start to add minutes or frequency. I'm doing 5 minute segments at the moment.
