At Curves a few weeks ago, they had a hula hoop for us to try. It wasn't your normal hula hoop, it was heavier and had knobs all along the inside. I watched as several girls tried it, but couldn't bring myself to try. I haven't used those muscles for years and years and I was afraid I would make a fool of myself. Finally, after a week of watching others use it and have fun with it, I decided to swallow my pride and give it a try.
OMG! I loved it! I could do it and it felt great! Well, being the compulsive person that I am, I went home, found it on the internet and ordered it. (BTW, there's a whole hula hoop world out there that I was ignorant of)
Well, my hubby thinks I'm nuts, but I love it and I really feel like I'm getting a workout when I use it.
