Does anyone know the calories burned hula hooping? Using a weighted one or not. I have no idea how to log it in to my exercise, or what to log it in as. I definitely break a sweat doing it.

    I'd enter it under the Wii Fit hula hoop

    I read that you can burn up to 100 calories every 10 minutes.

    I just googled it..pretty varied but the average person will burn approx. 200 calories per half hour...with a weighted hoop and intensity..it can go up to 400 for that half hour. If you have a weighted hoop...where did you find it?

    CVS pharmacies sell them.

    I have a 4 lb hula hoop. At first you can only do it for 10 minutes the 1st week. After that you can do 30 minutes. I don't enter calories burned, cause i don't have any idea how much....
