There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I can't normally hula-hoop for my life, but I read reviews on other hoops that said it's easier being weighted for some unknown reason, and right they were. I can actually do it, and it is helping my unfortunately aging body burn off some of that fat that is beginning to accumulate in (God help me) the mid-section, which no woman wants. I'm going to do this at least 3x's a week. I'm on the second configuration. It's 3 lbs., but it truly does adjust to 3 difficulty levels, even though I'm not sure of how it does this, it just does, trust me. So it's like 3 hoops in one in a way, and I have had no bruising, no soreness to speak of from it that I am noticing. I expected it based on other reviews of weighted hoops, and just figured I would work through it, but no need. A+++! SOOO happy I chose this one. I can't imagine the ones with ridges.
THIS HOOP DOES NOT HAVE ANY WAVES, BUMPS OR RIDGES OF ANY KIND!!!!!
Forget about massaging yourself with waves and ridges, those things can only hurt you not help you. Some hoops looked in the pics like they were 'wave-free' but turned out (via reviewer's comments) to have them. That MUST add to the soreness and bruising many spoke of, but it's not bad at all, and again.. no waves or bumps on this one, thankfully. You do the DVD, plus the bonus section and you really feel like you got a great workout. It's not too advanced for beginners like me, but you can amp it up and reconfigure once you get the full rhythm down.
It's a steal of a buy, and I paid (well actually my hubby did, full price. No paid for nor free product review here.)
I know those always hold more weight with me. No pun intended. Buy this, and you will NOT be disappointed!
Thanks empower!!!! I will soon do hoop videos on my You Tube channel when I get better, as I know others like me have resolutions for 2016, and I plan to live up to them. I will buy a couple more hoop dvd's, but this one is really good. I am going to use it often, as I am right now.

Why? It is easy to use, hasn't broken, snaps do not pop out of place, and it is super comfortable. The padding really helps and the colors are cool. I haven't really tried to detach the hoop and take it around so I cannot comment on the snaps longevity.
I pretty much use the hoop in the basement for about 10 minutes 3-5 times a week. You need a certain amount of room until you become accustomed to how large it is, but I think the size is great for me. I am a 5'3'' female and in the beginning it was awkward but after a few days I was feeling like a pro using this lol.
Have I seen some benefits? Yes, my core is tighter and those ab "lines" have formed. Now do I think this alone is going to melt fat off? No, not really. You would need weight training, a little more cardio, and diet modification. But I think this is a lovely add on to any fitness program and honestly if you don't even work out and want to start moving or this is the only thing you have time for, then this is the perfect place to start.
Comparisons: I did a lot of research before purchasing this hoop. There are some main forerunners in the hoop world, however I chose this one due to the padding, reviews, the DVD (haven't used this yet, once I do I'll update my review), and the COST. This has free shipping with Prime. I was thinking of going for the Canyon Hoops, but that would require an additional $10 shipping - are you crazy folks?
Overall good hoop!
The DVD begins with a warm up which familiarizes you with holding the hoop in a variety of positions and performing different basic movements. Each movement is focused on strengthening the core while working on a mid, upper or lower body portion (i.e., holding the hoop like a steering wheel, while knee lunging and sweeping the hoop to one side). Straightforward, simple and easy.
There are three basic routines to choose from, each about 13-17 minutes long. You can choose to do one, two or all three and you can select the order in which you do them. You start out learning the basic of hula hooping, figuring out which direction / footing suits you and testing out both directions. Every step is explained and you can set your own pace. Then you work through a variety of hoop lifting / moving / maneuvering interspaced with 3 minute portions of hula hooping. The mix is challenging, yet enjoyable. You definitely work up a sweat. The ability to customize the workout keeps things from getting too repetitive.
Afterwards, there is a cool down routine which takes you through a bunch of wonderful stretches and gets your heart rate back down to normal. You feel warm and flexible after. There's also a bonus low-impact routine after the cool down if you want / need.
NOTE: You will need about eight feet of clearance for the workouts, room to hopp around your waist, drop, swing and rotate the hoop around. Also, the hula hoop is weighted. This means that it's heavier than your average Wham-O hoop from the toy store and will require more effort to hoop it around your hips. For me, this resulted in light bruising about the hips for the first three workouts. I was a bit sore from the hoop after the first few times, so I recommend spacing your first three workouts a day apart until you build up a tolerance to the weight of the hoop.
Overall, a great product and great DVD. Still using after purchase and seeing slow, gradual firming of my core area, along with increased flexibility.
