I just started a few days ago. Thanks, I think this will help me!
As a kid I never managed, so I learn now at the age of 31 😁
That's awesome you are learning now at any age.
omg same!^^
This gives me so much hope, I’m only 22 but never managed when I was younger either 😂 it’s so much harder than it looks 🤦🏼♂️
Same 😀
I'm 15 and I don't hoop much, but I just one day learned. I just can't maintain it for more than like 40 seconds so I checked out this video. I'll try to stance and I've been doing a circular rather than back and forth motion
this was extremely helpful, thank you so much dude! i was feeling a little distraught because i couldn’t keep my weighted hoop up, but after this video i was able to switch up my stance and actually hoop for more than 5 seconds! can’t wait until i can dance and hoop at the same time hahaha
That's awesome!
It’s still a miracle to me. I’m going to watch more videos. I was also advised to get a 42” hoop vs the 36” one I originally purchased. I’m a large female with a 44” waist. That’s circumference, not diameter! Lol
i’m so grateful i found this video! i was able to get hula hooping again. my dang hoop was too small so i added back in a section. your advice is so clear and easy to apply. thank you!
Thanks for letting me know. I'm glad it worked out
This is the best of social distancing and dancing at the same time, love it! I'm so looking forward to learning! Very nice videos!
Thank you so much!
Great video! Still struggling with my weighted hoop keeping it up.
How do i fast or slow to keep it up?
Thank you so much. Hopefully since you posted this comment, you were able to get it by now.
Not sure if I understand what you are asking? Are you asking how to spin the hoop faster or slower?
watch the video but I’m really good
Absolutely brilliant. I’m still finding it difficult with one foot in front of the other but I seem to be able to do it better with both feet next to each other. I will keep practicing. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for such a comprehensive archive of tutorials. They're fantastic and I only started about a month ago and now I've gone from a 42" Hpde to a 34" polypro dancing, and a 30" for waist hooping (for smaller lengths of time haha)
Sending you the biggest smile because I've totally fallen in love with hooping :)
Wow!!! That's so great to hear!!!!
My husband and I went to the back garden just before midnight to practice without anyone watching. Both of us couldn’t keep the hoop for one second. We will try again after watching your video.
I only started two days ago but somehow I don't manage more than three seconds unless I hold my breath, lol. Love your vids so helpful!!
Thanks for the compliment. Yeah, what size hoop do you use?
I just want to find some movement that I love to do. I hoped as a kid without even thinking about it, it was a fad, we all had them. The video I watched before this was most helpful for me as I am big and I wanted to know how big was too big. Turns out Bigger is better for me. I sure didnt want to buy six hoops before I found what works for me! Thanks.
That's awesome! Yes, the bigger hoops, especially for bigger and taller people can be very helpful. I hope your hoop journey continues to go well!
Hey! I have started following your videos a few days back and got a weighted(3lbs) for my self. I used to hula hoop during my school days but lost touch of it now. I want to hula hoop like I used to do in my teen age. It’s a real fun. Looking forward to learn more hacks and tips from you to enjoy my hoop. I want to do the following things with hula hoop:
1. Increase my physical activity
2. Reduce / slim down my belly
3. Improve my stamina
4. To have more fun 🤩
Awesome! All those things you can achieve! And thanks for watching!
You make it look so easy😃! I’ve just ordered my weighted hoop, but I’m sure your video will help tons! Hoop on!
That is great to hear!!! Thank you
You really helped me!!! My weighted hula hoop just arrived yesterday and I honestly don’t know how to use it, until I saw your videos!!! I love you a lot ❤️😘
I'm so glad! Thank you!! Hopefully it goes well!
Sir I am 54 years old and was a hula hoop champ😂 back in my day. You gave a great explanation so I’m thinking maybe it’s just my weighted hoop. It’s a little on the floppy side because I bought it off amazon and the pieces connect together. It’s an okay concept but now using it I feel it is definitely the hoop and not my technique.
You also mentioned size and that too never occurred to me as we didn’t have different sizes back in the day.
I’ve just ordered my hoop after watching this. Excited to start!
Thank you so much! I couldn't get this going for the LIFE of me! LOL I started doing it so dramatically and then you mentioned exaggerating the motion at first is good so I didn't feel crazy :). Very detailed. I looked up other videos and they didn't help until I came across yours!
Im getting my hoop next week. I want to have fun while getting fit and loose weight. I hope I can get this right
I can do it but I can only keep the hoop up for like 10-15 seconds and then it starts falling down 😕
That’s okay. Keep at it and it will happen eventually.
Time stamp 3:13 - listen to what he says
I just received my weighted hula hoop for my 54th birthday. I am so excited however I simply cannot keep the hoop off the ground. I have watched your video repeatedly. Will try again in the morning. Not giving up .
i juat got a weighted hoop and i couldnt keeping up but after watching this video through once i can keep it up for almost entire minutes !!!
Wow! That's great to hear!
Was bored in the office, we had a hoop. We learned to hula. Thank you. Best tutorial. Never occured to me to just sway forward and back, and not in a circle.
Awesome!
Looking good, my friend! 💜
One added tip that I usually give to first time waist hoopers: If the hoop feels too wobbly, try "sliding" your hips forward & back like your granny's old glider swing! 😁
lol! And thank you!
How to walk and hulu hoop?
I don't usually comment on stuff but wow I was really struggling till I found your video. thanks dude
This was SO FREAKIN HELPFUL!!!! Thank you ❤️
Thanks for the tips! 2 days and my hoop arrives! Is 2 pounds a good starting weight for weighted hula hooping?
Used to be able to hula hoop with such ease when I was younger, but with this weighted hula hoop, haven't managed to work this yet
Thanks! I used to be great at hula hooping when I was a kid, but I feel like I have to learn all over again for the weighted hoop. Your video helped and now I just need to practice
Hello, im from the Philippines, 48 yo and a beginer, i just started hula hooping actually on my 4th day today..
Started subscribing here in ur yt chanel get pointers and tips from u. I started with a 1kg hula hoop and as a beginner, am still strugling😅
I want to dance at an open air music festival. AND I want to continue enjoying this newfound love of movement & challenges; I wouldn’t mind teaching classes to others to share that joy (in time, obvs .) I’m 51 and have loved the past month of hooping! Still not successfully waist hooping, but that could be more a matter of fitness. All in good time, with practice. Until then, I’m working on off the body moves and increasing my fitness level! Thanks for asking, you’re a rock star in my eyes. 🥰😍
That's awesome! I hope all those dreams come true for you and you teach and share the joy. Thank you for the compliments!
Really it is working i learn in 10 year
Awesome!
WOW 👌 👏 WOW WOW !!!!!
THEANKS 😊
" I NEEDED THAT " !!!
GOING TO HULA HOOP
THANKS 😊
CLO ❤️
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you, I managed to go to 19 spins today, not quite figured this out yet but it looks like I'm getting there (and it's also kind of a stamina issue)
Thanks for the tips. I have this exact same hoop. It comes just below my belly button. I can’t keep it up no matter what I do so I purchased another one so I can extend the hoop and make it larger. Hopefully this helps🤞🏾
Great idea!! I didn't think to do that with that hoop. If you feel inspired to let me know who it goes, I'd be interested in hearing about that. Though I make my own collapsible hoops. If people bought two of this hoop it could be a nice hack for beginners to be more successful.
Omg no wonder why it kept falling, I was doing all the wrong things hahah. This helped a lot, thank you!
Glad it helped!
Woah this helped. I've been able to hula-hoop for a long time. I swlf taught myself I think just by using logic I think. I'd been doing it wrong tho. I could only do for up to half a minute, but with your strategy I've managed to hit minutes and that's just cause I eventually get tired. I can even walk with it, but walking with it is pretty easy. I'd been doing a circular motion when really you're supposed to do a back and forth motion which I guess is why I could never keep it up for long. I didn't even think I'd be able to use it because the size and how skinny I am, thank you so much.
great tips. Mt grand daughter has a weighted hula hoop so I tried it for a while. Now at 69 after going through your tips I can keep it going for around 10 seconds already.
That is awesome!
just got my first hula hoop today ^^
your video will help me for sure !
thanks
You are a good teacher
Thank you . Im learning from your vedio
Glad to hear that
Hi! So I can easily do all the stances when spinning the hoop to the right, but for some reason I’m struggling with keeping the hoop up to my left. It’s also not spinning completely straight on. Do you have any tips? Thanks for the amazing and super helpful video!
Very well spoken! I’m sure this will help many beginners 🦋🙏🏼🦋
Just ordered a weighted hoop! Wish me luck 🙏
Good luck!!
just starting out, super useful so far, thank you!
Thank you so much for this great instructional video. I met a dude who had great custom made hoops and I was able to keep one up easily. I was so suprised. The next day I felt it in my whole body, and I decided it is the perfect workout tool for me. I bought another kind of weighted hoop that is covered in foam and it is light. It is a challenge keeping it up. His were bigger. Still struggling, but will try filling it with rice and see if it helps. Wondering if I could buy the same hoop online again and add another section? Or maybe I should just look for a larger hoop. Thanks.
That's great. Way to go! If the hoop is durable enough, you could try buying the same hoop to add another section
You're a great teacher. You have a fantasic way of explaining what to do throughly, yet, without too many words. You are so great. Did you teach me to Hoop in Summer 2002 in Austin, TX?
Hey thanks. No I didn't teach you then. I didn't start hooping until 2009
@@hoopsmiles I lost touch with the guy who taught me. I only knew him one day. He taught me how to hoop and how to make hoops. You are a fantastic teacher and you feel so familiar. Thanks for clarifying for me. Congratulations on over a decade of hooping🎊 You are a great teacher and hooper ! 💖
Great video! This is the best hula hooping video I've seen. You didn't over complicate it. I will be using some of your tips later. Thank you 👍🏾🙌🏾
Awesome to hear! Thank you so much
Perfect! I was having a lot of trouble when it started to fall but now with a sideways movement my hips seem to catch it if it starts to go down. Thanks
Nice. That's great!
Im a newbie at hula hooping , and haven't been able to keep hoop going round more than 4 times but I'm going to watch you today when I practise today and see if I can learn from you so fingers crossed and thank you
Awesome. Hopefully it worked out. I'm curious, what is the diameter size of your hoop?
I'm not sure but I have brought another hoop so I can add links to make mine bigger
I appreciate the video, it's helpful. I'm hoping to use my weighted hoop as a workout exercise, work some tummy off, and I'd also like to get a dancing hoop for tricks cause that looks like an awesome hobby. 💜
I’m thinking of getting one of these so I appreciate your tips
Glad I could help
Hi. Thank you so much!
I'm an example of the proverbial, "cant walk and chew gum at the same time". I would practice the back and forth movement for a while and the moment I spin the hoop, I loose concentration and start moving in all directions. HELP!!!!!!
I know that I have to keep practicing. I'm using a weighted hoop.
Love your videos!!!
Hey thank you so much for the compliment. In regards to your hooping, I would have to see more to fully understand what's happening. Have you considered hooping in front of a mirror before or filming yourself so you can see what you are doing. If your posture and how you are moving is off, then that could definitely make the hoop fall.
Im try hard to dancing with my hoop. Thank you for your sharing.
I just can't hula hoop in the opposite direction. My dominate direction I can do for hours.
Helpful 😄fun funThanks!
Thank you for the tips I will be practicing this more! I used to be able to hula hoop as a kid so I don’t understand why I’m struggling now.
You're welcome! I think many others have experienced that too
Really Like your videos and explanations. Where do you buy a basic hoop? Or what brands do I look for? Need a large one.
Helpful information. With it being weighted, it seems a little difficult. Definitely going to use your pointers and keep at it. My goal is to be able to use this hoop and loose my stomach.
Thank you.
You helped me work a smart hoop now I’m determined to work my weighted hoop. Lol it’s the lightest they sell but OMG it’s so hard to keep it up. Took all your advice and hopefully will be able to update in a few days. Definitely will be bruised 😂
Glad I could help! Thank you for sharing!
Finally 6 mins into the video he tells the importance of hoop size... after I'd been struggling with one that only reaches my knees🙃
I just purchased this hoop I am loving your videos👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Yay! Thank you!
Thank you very much for making this video. It's really help me
Just wanted to watch the video but I’m really good
Great tips! Thank you!
You are welcome!
I’ve been hooping for about a week, and I’ve noticed I start getting straining in my neck and also it seems my left leg and butt begin to hurt. What am I doing wrong?
Oh no! Well I'd have to see what you are doing to get more of a feel for what you are doing. I'd say if it is hurting a lot you might want to stop. Once you are able to hoop, it shouldn't require much movement to make it work.
thank you! this video is really helpful. I just started today to work on my back pain and I do have some questions:
1. I noticed the hoop starting to go from horizontally, as it should be, to shifting into a diagonally motion. what am I doing wrong here? is my right foot too far in front? am I moving my hips in a wrong way?
2. can I go easy on the hooping or am I supposed to go super fast and strong? because it looks so easy when you do it and very hard when I go for it. can I still work on my lower back muscles and stamina while doing it more slowly? is there even a perfect tempo so to say?
thanks again and hope all of you are healthy and well in these weird times!
Yours are the Nicest hoop videos! Thanks for sharing
Hey thanks! Glad you think so!
Last hoop I used was my kid sister's. I was about 6 or 7-years-old and I got pretty good one summer then the fad stopped, we moved house and the hoop got binned. I've just ordered a new one at the tender age of 61, need to lose a load of weight but my cardiologist says that under it all my core is in great shape and my heart is better now than it was at 40 so there's hope. Have ordered a lightweight (1.4 kg) to start but hope to progress to heavier weights. I'm thinking several five-minute sessions a day to begin, how does that sound? Released to have found a site where a guy is showing how to hoop too!
Working on balance & weight loss
My hoop always starts spinning at an angle even when I start it off horizontal to the ground!! 🥺
Same problem here. I guess my body is just made like that🤷🏼♀️
I'm the same
Thanks for this weighted hoop video - been looking all over for one! I've had my 1.4 kg hoop for 3 weeks and still can't get the hoop to circle my waist more than once before it drops to the floor. Does it really get better ?! It's really frustrating 😞
GREAT VID
I just wanted to watch the video but I know how to hook up really good I mean I can even jump well I Hula hoop
Awesome video, lots of helpful tips although my main problem is keeping the hoop at my belly button, I seem to keep it around my hips, I’m guessing I just need to make my motions bigger?
Tank for sharing !!!!!Great tips to a beginner like me
Awesome! I'm glad!
I've just started practicing my hoop skills today, your video really helps! Though, I was doing some research online and I read that you can hurt your back if you hoop incorrectly. Do you have any more tips to prevent this from happening? :)
My advice here is the most important part is the hoop you are using. Some weighted hula hoops are dangerous to use and can lead to hurting your back. I don't recommend going over 2 pounds in weight and getting a hoops with bumps or knobs that stick out. A flat padded weighted hula hoop would be my recommendation. If you want to protect yourself more, then I would recommend wearing extra clothing or padding over the place you are hula hooping. In terms of hurting your back, I would stop immediately if you feel pain while hula hooping.
Also forgot to add, when hula hooping, let your abs do the work, not your back. Flex your ab muscles tightly as you hula hoop to help propel the hoop around.
I always did it in like age 6-10 in afterclass now i am 14 and best way for me is with legs together and doing circles so like the oposite
I love your videos. I have started hula hooping but struggling. Your suggestions always help me out. However, I am only able to get it to spin around me 3 times. It doesn't seem to matter if I am standing still or rocking back and forth. It is always just 3 or 4 times. Any suggestions?
How is the hooping going now?
Damn... He makes it look so EASY! 😅🙈
Thanks
My biggest issue is that the hoop gets stuck around my hips. I can't keep it at my waist, but I can keep it at my hips for probably 30 seconds at a clip. And if it doesn't fall to my hips, it sticks up at my ribs. 😅 And I have lovely colorful bruises to show for it. lol
I can move in both directions, as well. Clockwise is definitely harder for me, though. And I have better luck with side to side movement than the front to back rocking. I'm 35 and have two kids, so I know it's gonna be a matter of continuing to practice.
thank you
Thanks!
Hey thanks so much for your contribution!
Great advice in this video
Thank you
I've only just got mine still can't do it after this video but I'll keep trying. 😢😂
Hi! my most challenge is keeping it up , and i want to acheive a toned waist and a stronger core :D
never mind , after this video i have perfected it i can now keep it up for 2:30 minutes!!
I end up with achy knees after but I think I might try your feet forward technique 😅 although I can only seem to hoop rocking side to side rather than back and forth 😬
Thank you!
This is so helpful! I just bought a weighted hula hoop for some at home cardio. I've found that it starts to slow down after about a minute. How do I keep maintain the rhythm so ti doesn't slow and drop?
The hoop isn’t slowing down, you are. You are the power behind the motion of the hoop. It’s not spinning itself. You have to really give it some cardio movement to keep it going. That is the point after all.
I LOVE your videos!!
Hey thanks so much!
I just got a hoop a few days ago and I'm really enjoying it. Do I have to hula hoop to both sides? I don't want wonky muscles lol
I recommend doing it in both directions
My cat was trying to catch the hula hoop at one point while you were hooping. 🤣
HaHaHa! How cute!
😹
Hi I can keep the hoop up for ages using both the one foot in front of the other and the feet shoulder width apart techniques but I can’t walk or move with it. As soon as I try to move it falls down, but I can keep going for hours if I stand on the spot. How do I keep it going and move?
I searched in the comments but couldn't find this asked! I have no trouble keeping the hoop up but my issue is that it hurts my skin!😞 I have even padding between my shirt and the hoop but still I feel bruised the next day! Am I doing it wrong if it hurts? (It's definitely not sore muscle pain, that I'm used to and I recognise it.) I have a normal weighted hoop. I don't understand why the bumps have to be on the inside, they hurt like hell.. I'd appreciate it so much if you have any tips 🙏🏼
I can get it going but it drops quickly. Is it maybe too heavy?
Hula hooping is kicking my butt...the workout has turned into catching the falling hoop, or picking it up off the ground after it falls.
Wish hoops had a counter on it, like the "Skip It" toy from the 80s & 90s
There is one hoop with a counter on it. I don't remember the name of it. It sells on Amazon. It's fancy and can even be synced to an app on your phone.
I’ve given up and I don’t have a flat surface to hula hoop on. Can that affect me?
I’m trying to figure out the same thing.
I want to use these hula hoops to get rid of my stomach fat, but I'm 5 feet tall. I'm tiny, and these hula hoops look huge to me. What kind should I get?
I am 5’2 and I’ve used this size from the start, the bigger the hoop the easier it actually is! There are other kinds though that you can take sections out if it is too much. :)
Can't seem to stop bruising, and don't wanna wear anything padded -- knowing myself I'm not gonna keep putting a pad like object around my waist everytime I wanna hula. One of the reasons I stopped riding a motorcycle was cuz of all the gear. Is there another way to avoid bruising outside of pads? For example, should I do it everyday for 1 minute and eventually the bruising will go away by itself and I can hula longer and longer? Thanks!
What kind of hoop do you have? I wonder if it's the hoop itself that's causing bruising. I usually don't recommend using hoops with curvy bumps or knots that stick out or anything over 2 pounds in weight. Some cases, some people need a hoop that is under 2 pounds. Also, is your hoop padded or have a harder surface?
@@hoopsmiles bruises are fading, thanks so much for your advice!!!;)
Would you recommend this exercise for bad backs? Broke mine 7years ago still get severe pain!!!
Your t-shirt is awesome!
Thanks!
I want to up as an exercise technique, what do I need to do
