    I just started this week with a 3-pound hoop. I love it! Unfortunately, I do it indoors in our smallish apartment and my husband is convinced I'm going to break something. What can I say? I guess it makes me feel like a kid in more ways than one - and I love how it works my abs!

    Me!! I just started about 2 weeks ago. It is fun and quite a workout! I got my hoop from walmart but I need a better one. I need one that is bigger and has more weight.

    ETA: you can buy them online, just google hula hoops. I'm looking at several websites right now.

    Why not just dance hula? Or Tahitian for that matter?

    It's sexier, is better for your core, and burns more calories in the process...:wink:

    I love hooping! I buy mine from Etsy. If anyone needs a seller, I've got a few bookmarked that are pretty fantastic.

    I'm to the point where I am starting to get a lot of decent tricks.

    And Kristy, I insist you watch a shpongledhoops video before you say your hula is sexier than ours. ;)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmQoXTowkgk

    I could do it when I was little but I recently I bought a hoop thinking it could make my workouts more fun. But now I can't do it. I can't keep it going for more than a few turns before it's on the ground. What am I doing wrong? I've even watched a few beginner youtube videos and tried a couple of their ideas. No luck. Should I just keep trying?
