Alrighty, as promised, here is my report on my hula hoop workout. Let me just start out by saying that I when I bought the system I realized that there was going to be some level of lameness associated with this work out. I had no idea, however, that it was going to be as lame as it was.
In my defense, hula hooping has actually started to become a "thing" in the work out world. Hula hooping is supposed to be great for stabilizing the core and slimming the waist. Since I carry lots of fat in the waistular area, plus I'm AWESOME at hula hooping, I thought this workout would be great for me. And the system I bought not only had a weighted hoop (for added intensity!) but it also came with a DVD that claimed to give you a full body work out. I was totally game!
The first thing I noticed about this workout was there wasn't a whole lot of hooping going on. Silly me for thinking that a hula hooping workout would contain actual hula hooping. There was a lot of using the hoop (the instructor kept calling it a "tube") to do lame aerobics moves which you will see on my lovely sample video. And yeah, I guess it was working my whole body, but it was super hard to take anything they were doing seriously. I think I'm going to have super toned eyeballs though, as I did A LOT of eye rolling throughout the workout. You will see what I mean. Bad. So bad. To be fair, the actual hooping part is tough and does work the core muscles quite well. As for the rest of it...well I hope you get a good laugh!
