Feel like a kid again. Bring out your hula hoop and do some hoop exercises. Hoop exercise is one of the most underestimated forms of exercise, yet it is great for weight loss, fitness, building mobility and flexibility. It is a low intensity workout that anybody can do. Special heavy weight hula hoops are also being used in cardio workouts to burn more calories.
Unfortunately, you cannot just borrow your child’s hula hoop and do your exercises. For it to be effective it is important that you use the right size of hoop. The general rule of thumb to follow is that when the hoop is resting on the ground it should reach somewhere between stomach and chest height. The bigger the hoop, the slower it will rotate around your body and the easier it is to use. The smaller the hoop, the more challenging it is to use.
