ResultSport UK The Original Weighted Hula Hoop Foam Padded 1.5kg (3.3lbs) Fitness Exercise 100cm wide

Wide 100cm Hoop That Turns Slowly - The 100 cm diameter means the hoop travels more slowly around your waist than a small light hoop, so the rhythm is easier to find and easier to hold for a full session. 1.5kg, the Heavier of the Two - This is the 1.5 kg hoop, which gives more for the hips to work against once your rhythm is settled. The 1.2 kg version is the easier starting point if you are new to hooping. Foam Padding Over a Polyethylene Core - Soft foam wraps a polyethylene tube, so the contact against your waist and hips stays cushioned rather than hard-edged for the whole workout. Clips Together From 8 Sections Without Tools - The hoop assembles from eight snap-together sections in a couple of minutes with no tools. Removing one section makes the hoop smaller and lighter for a tighter turn. Comes Apart for a Wardrobe, Suitcase or Kit Bag - Taken apart the hoop stores flat, which is what makes it workable in a flat or a shared house. It is intended for domestic use and is not suitable for running or skating. How to Put the Hoop Together - The eight sections push and click into each other with no tools. Line up the connector on each section, press until it seats, and work round the circle until the ends meet. How Much Space You Need - Allow roughly an arm span of clear floor in every direction so the hoop can travel without catching furniture. A living-room floor is usually enough. How to Make the Hoop Smaller - Remove one of the eight sections and reconnect the ends. The circumference shortens, the hoop turns faster and sits closer to the body, which some people find easier while learning. Difference Between 1.2kg and 1.5kg - Both hoops are 100 cm across and built the same way. The 1.2 kg is the easier starting point and the 1.5 kg gives more for the hips to work against once the movement is steady. Cleaning and Storing the Hoop - Wipe the foam with a damp cloth and let it air dry before taking the hoop apart. Stored in sections it lies flat on a wardrobe shelf, in a suitcase or in a kit bag.
