I was a member of Bally’s for two years because of their stupid contract, it was tough to get out of it so I had no choice but to just suck it up.
Now, I’m working at LA fitness as a membership counselor and their gym is much better in my opinion compare to Bally’s. LA fitness has basketball courts, Sauna, and much more compare to Bally’s.
Huge!,
I bought this hoop to replace one I bought a couple of years ago made by Gaiam. This hoop doesn’t work as well for me as the other one. I am already familiar with basic hooping and can keep it up for as long as I want. I only bought this one because Gaiam no longer makes their own hoop and I left mine in another state. This hoop was PAINFUL! It’s metal underneath the foam, and the foam isn’t nearly thick enough to make up for it. My stomach isn’t perfectly defined, of course, and maybe the extra chunk is making it more uncomfortable. Also the hoop is MUCH larger than my other one. I measured out the diameter when I ordered it and it didn’t seem so large. I’m 5’10″, so I thought it would be ok. I think to make this usable I will have to wear my Everlast Slimmer belt to pad my tummy a bit. The DVD isn’t really about hooping, it’s regular circuit moves (squats, pushups, plank) and hooping for a few seconds in between. It isn’t a nice-flowing exercise DVD like you may be used to, like 10-minute Solutions or Crunch. This hoop is well-constructed and I know it won’t fall apart or anything. But it will definitely take some getting used to.

|Exactly what I was looking for!,
This product was exactly what I was looking for! I wanted something that I could do indoors (very cold winters where I live), that was quiet (I live in an apartment), and that was fun. I’ve tried exercise videos and they’re great – when I actually do them, which isn’t as often as it should be. I wrote down the strength exercises that are interspersed with hooping sessions on the DVD and now I can do my workout while listening to music of my choice or watching a movie or my favorite show. I was a little skeptical of how good of a workout you could get using a hula hoop, but it does get my heart rate up and get me sweating!
The hoop is large so taking it apart is definitely preferable for storing. An earlier review mentioned that the reviewer had a hard time taking it apart, but I haven’t found that to be the case for me (and I have arthritis in one of my hands!). The hardest part is finding the tiny buttons you have to press in – they’re under the foam coating on the hoop – but once I find them I don’t have any problems taking it apart (even with my arthritic hand).
