If you go to the hardware store, such as Lowes.. everything should be in the plumbing department. You'll need the 3/4…

I was trying to do the 30/30 challenge at Hooping.org but I totally messed up yesterday! Ooops. I am going to continue though and just keep on keepin' on! I want to try to incorporate some strength training as well and possibly yoga.. but mainly will be hula hooping everyday, trying to keep changing it up with the types of…

I have been trying just to alternate from a side to side stance, to right foot in front, to left foot in front. Then I have also been doing stepping side to side, and front to back.

As you get more advanced you can get smaller. I make my own hoops so I have several sizes and weights. You can purchase a hoop from Etsy.com made just to…

I'm going to start hooping everyday. I'm planning to do a 30 day challenge, where I'll hoop for 30 minutes a day at least. I made my own hoops to start hooping, but you can always buy from hoopnotica.com hoopgirl.com both are great websites. i am waiting on a travel hoop to arrive from hoopnotica. I also go to the website…

I also hate working out. Definitely not fond of going to the gym at all. And some times its just hard cause I am such a procrastinator. BUT I found something that works for me! Hula hooping. I know sounds childish but it is actually really fun. You can buy a weighted hoop at sporting goods store strictly for fitness or…
