Heh - so the other day, one of my co-workers mentioned that she was thinking of buying a hula hoop for exercise. And I thought - huh, that probably is pretty good for your core. And then on Sunday, I saw that they have hula hoops in the grocery store. So I bought one...
I don't think I ever even tried this as a kid, but I'm figuring it out, and it's kindof fun. (Though I may be having even more fun having our little frisbee dog jump through it for treats... I need to get some pictures of that because she's a maniac!) But now I'm spending the evening trying to figure out how to get it started from the ground by kicking it with my other foot, and work it up from my knees to my waist, and all of that fun stuff. (All sorts of instructional videos are out there on YouTube).
Just wondering if anyone else has ever tried this. Heh - it's cheap anyway - the one at the store was only a couple bucks, and I guess they are very easy to make yourself out of stuff you can grab at Home Depot.
