      I'm 15 and I don't hoop much, but I just one day learned. I just can't maintain it for more than like 40 seconds so I checked out this video. I'll try to stance and I've been doing a circular rather than back and forth motion

AND I want to continue enjoying this newfound love of movement & challenges; I wouldn’t mind teaching classes to others to share that joy (in time, obvs .) I’m 51 and have loved the past month of hooping! Still not successfully waist hooping, but that could be more a matter of fitness. All in good time, with practice. Until then, I’m working on off the body moves and increasing my fitness level! Thanks for asking, you’re a rock star in my eyes. 🥰😍

    Hey! I have started following your videos a few days back and got a weighted(3lbs) for my self. I used to hula hoop during my school days but lost touch of it now. I want to hula hoop like I used to do in my teen age. It’s a real fun. Looking forward to learn more hacks and tips from you to enjoy my hoop. I want to do the following things with hula hoop:
    1. Increase my physical activity
    2. Reduce / slim down my belly
    3. Improve my stamina
    4. To have more fun 🤩

    Hi. Thank you so much!
    I'm an example of the proverbial, "cant walk and chew gum at the same time". I would practice the back and forth movement for a while and the moment I spin the hoop, I loose concentration and start moving in all directions. HELP!!!!!!
    I know that I have to keep practicing. I'm using a weighted hoop.
    Love your videos!!!

    • @hoopsmiles
      @hoopsmiles  3 года назад

      Hey thank you so much for the compliment. In regards to your hooping, I would have to see more to fully understand what's happening. Have you considered hooping in front of a mirror before or filming yourself so you can see what you are doing. If your posture and how you are moving is off, then that could definitely make the hoop fall.

    Sir I am 54 years old and was a hula hoop champ😂 back in my day. You gave a great explanation so I’m thinking maybe it’s just my weighted hoop. It’s a little on the floppy side because I bought it off amazon and the pieces connect together. It’s an okay concept but now using it I feel it is definitely the hoop and not my technique.
    You also mentioned size and that too never occurred to me as we didn’t have different sizes back in the day.

    I just want to find some movement that I love to do. I hoped as a kid without even thinking about it, it was a fad, we all had them. The video I watched before this was most helpful for me as I am big and I wanted to know how big was too big. Turns out Bigger is better for me. I sure didnt want to buy six hoops before I found what works for me! Thanks.

    • @hoopsmiles

    Thank you so much for this great instructional video. I met a dude who had great custom made hoops and I was able to keep one up easily. I was so suprised. The next day I felt it in my whole body, and I decided it is the perfect workout tool for me. I bought another kind of weighted hoop that is covered in foam and it is light. It is a challenge keeping it up. His were bigger. Still struggling, but will try filling it with rice and see if it helps. Wondering if I could buy the same hoop online again and add another section? Or maybe I should just look for a larger hoop. Thanks.

    thank you! this video is really helpful. I just started today to work on my back pain and I do have some questions:
    1. I noticed the hoop starting to go from horizontally, as it should be, to shifting into a diagonally motion. what am I doing wrong here? is my right foot too far in front? am I moving my hips in a wrong way?
    2. can I go easy on the hooping or am I supposed to go super fast and strong? because it looks so easy when you do it and very hard when I go for it. can I still work on my lower back muscles and stamina while doing it more slowly? is there even a perfect tempo so to say?
    thanks again and hope all of you are healthy and well in these weird times!

    @Skxtra. 2 года назад +2

    Woah this helped. I've been able to hula-hoop for a long time. I swlf taught myself I think just by using logic I think. I'd been doing it wrong tho. I could only do for up to half a minute, but with your strategy I've managed to hit minutes and that's just cause I eventually get tired. I can even walk with it, but walking with it is pretty easy. I'd been doing a circular motion when really you're supposed to do a back and forth motion which I guess is why I could never keep it up for long. I didn't even think I'd be able to use it because the size and how skinny I am, thank you so much.

      Great idea!! I didn't think to do that with that hoop. If you feel inspired to let me know who it goes, I'd be interested in hearing about that. Though I make my own collapsible hoops. If people bought two of this hoop it could be a nice hack for beginners to be more successful.

    Thanks for this weighted hoop video - been looking all over for one! I've had my 1.4 kg hoop for 3 weeks and still can't get the hoop to circle my waist more than once before it drops to the floor. Does it really get better ?! It's really frustrating 😞

    This is so helpful! I just bought a weighted hula hoop for some at home cardio. I've found that it starts to slow down after about a minute. How do I keep maintain the rhythm so ti doesn't slow and drop?

    • @sirena_senora
      @sirena_senora 2 года назад

      The hoop isn’t slowing down, you are. You are the power behind the motion of the hoop. It’s not spinning itself. You have to really give it some cardio movement to keep it going. That is the point after all.

    Hi I can keep the hoop up for ages using both the one foot in front of the other and the feet shoulder width apart techniques but I can’t walk or move with it. As soon as I try to move it falls down, but I can keep going for hours if I stand on the spot. How do I keep it going and move?

    Last hoop I used was my kid sister's. I was about 6 or 7-years-old and I got pretty good one summer then the fad stopped, we moved house and the hoop got binned. I've just ordered a new one at the tender age of 61, need to lose a load of weight but my cardiologist says that under it all my core is in great shape and my heart is better now than it was at 40 so there's hope. Have ordered a lightweight (1.4 kg) to start but hope to progress to heavier weights. I'm thinking several five-minute sessions a day to begin, how does that sound? Released to have found a site where a guy is showing how to hoop too!

    Hey hoopsmiles, I've got a question. I manage to keep the hoop from falling, BUT it pivots after a few seconds, so one end circles around my waist and another around the hips or thighs. I give it a strong starting push and I think I'm standing straight, so I can't figure out why this keeps happening. Btw, I'm using a weighted hoop, and using the first stance (although I have a bigger distance between feet). Please help :)

      I recommend going with a larger diameter size hoop. Even just getting a hoop 5 inches or more larger in diameter can make a huge difference.

    I searched in the comments but couldn't find this asked! I have no trouble keeping the hoop up but my issue is that it hurts my skin!😞 I have even padding between my shirt and the hoop but still I feel bruised the next day! Am I doing it wrong if it hurts? (It's definitely not sore muscle pain, that I'm used to and I recognise it.) I have a normal weighted hoop. I don't understand why the bumps have to be on the inside, they hurt like hell.. I'd appreciate it so much if you have any tips 🙏🏼

  • @RandomRandisRamblings
    @RandomRandisRamblings 3 года назад

    My biggest issue is that the hoop gets stuck around my hips. I can't keep it at my waist, but I can keep it at my hips for probably 30 seconds at a clip. And if it doesn't fall to my hips, it sticks up at my ribs. 😅 And I have lovely colorful bruises to show for it. lol
    I can move in both directions, as well. Clockwise is definitely harder for me, though. And I have better luck with side to side movement than the front to back rocking. I'm 35 and have two kids, so I know it's gonna be a matter of continuing to practice.

    I would like to tone the abs but then have it as a hobby to dance. Does it matter to spin both way for toning. I’m worried one side will be toned and the other not. I can feel it in my right side but not left? Which way to spin to work the left side?
    Love this video

    • @hoopsmiles
      @hoopsmiles  3 года назад

      What I would recommend doing is just spending about the same time doing both directions. As you get better, you can use it for dancing. Thanks.

    I've just started practicing my hoop skills today, your video really helps! Though, I was doing some research online and I read that you can hurt your back if you hoop incorrectly. Do you have any more tips to prevent this from happening? :)

    • @hoopsmiles
      @hoopsmiles  3 года назад +4

      My advice here is the most important part is the hoop you are using. Some weighted hula hoops are dangerous to use and can lead to hurting your back. I don't recommend going over 2 pounds in weight and getting a hoops with bumps or knobs that stick out. A flat padded weighted hula hoop would be my recommendation. If you want to protect yourself more, then I would recommend wearing extra clothing or padding over the place you are hula hooping. In terms of hurting your back, I would stop immediately if you feel pain while hula hooping.

    • @hoopsmiles
      @hoopsmiles  3 года назад +3

      Also forgot to add, when hula hooping, let your abs do the work, not your back. Flex your ab muscles tightly as you hula hoop to help propel the hoop around.

    Thank you for all your tips! What would be your advice for trying to keep it in a forward and back motion, as I’ve noticed it’s a habit for my hips to go in a circular motion instead😔

    • @hoopsmiles
      @hoopsmiles  3 года назад +2

      First off, are you able to keep the hoop up moving in the circular motion? The rocking back and forth is just 1 of multiple techniques to hula hooping. If you can keep the hoop up not rocking back and forth, that is ok, but it is good to learn how to move your body in multiple ways to hula hoop.
